Full Description
Leading Cases in Administrative Law introduces and analyzes the foundational judicial decisions - some old, some recent - of administrative law. Its 35 chapters - each devoted to a single decision or two related decisions - cover nearly the entire field of administrative law, including constitutional separation of powers; the two main forms agency action, rulemaking and adjudication; due process; and the perquisites to and scope of judicial review of agency action.
Each leading case is treated in a short, accessible chapter that discusses the essentials of the case and identifies its place and significance in administrative law. Nearly forty of the country's most renowned experts in administrative law have contributed to the book.
Newcomers to administrative law will find in the book introductions to the field's leading cases that no other book provides. Existing experts in the field - whether private or government practitioners, scholars, or judges - will find fresh and valuable insights into these cases.
The book complements other publications sponsored by the American Bar Association's Section of Administrative Law and Regulatory practice, including the Section's Blackletter Statement of Administrative Law.
