Dicey popularized the term rule of law through his 1885 constitutional study

Evidence

124 Albert Venn Dicey (1835–1922) was a British jurist and constitutional theorist who expounded the theory of the ‘rule of law’ and popularised the term. The quote that follows is from Introduction to the Study of the Law of the Constitution (1885, 75–6) which forms a part of the unwritten British Constitution and is therefore also referred to as English Constitution. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 1143
