A comprehensive overview of the field of comparative administrative
law, the specially commissioned papers in this landmark volume
represent a broad, multi-method approach combining history and
social science perspectives with more strictly legal analyses.
Comparisons of the United States, continental Europe, and the
British Commonwealth are complemented by contributions that focus
on Latin America, Africa, and Asia. The work aims to stimulate
comparative research on public law, reaching across countries and
scholarly disciplines. Beginning with historical reflections on the
emergence of administrative law over the last two centuries, the
volume then turns to the relationship of administrative and
constitutional law, with an additional section focusing on the key
issue of administrative independence. Two further sections
highlight the possible tensions between impartial expertise and
public accountability, drawing insights from economics and
political science as well as law. The final section considers the
changing boundaries of the administrative state - both the
public-private distinction and the links between domestic and
transnational regulatory bodies such as the European Union. In
covering this broad range of topics, the book illuminates a core
concern of administrative law: the way individuals and
organizations across different systems test and challenge the
legitimacy of the modern state. This extensive, interdisciplinary
appraisal of the field will prove a vital resource for scholars and
students of administrative and comparative law. Historians of the
state looking for a broad overview of a key area of public law,
reformers in emerging economies, donor agencies looking for
governance options, and policy analysts with an interest in the
law/policy interface will also find this work a valuable addition
to their library.
