Abstract

Review essays of two books: Jothie Rajah, Authoritarian Rule of Law: Legislation, Discourse and Legitimacy in Singapore (Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press, 2012) and Tsun Hang TEY, Legal Consensus: Supreme Executive, Supine Jurisprudence, Suppliant Profession of Singapore (Hong Kong: Centre for Comparative and Public Law, 2011). The author argues that two books on the law in Singapore are very distinctive in their approaches, and they each make a seminal contribution to scholarship in this field.
