Great interview, thank you Fabian for the guest. Very structured thoughts on Fuller, who seems outdated for the philosophy of law, but a lot usefull in the rule of law area. for example "Rule of Law Checklist" by the Council of Europe seems to me couldn't exist without the Fuller as an unofficial comment to it.
