Administrative law

This volume brings together for the first time a collection of Readings in Administrative Law which approaches the subject from a socio-legal perspective. The extended introduction gives an overall description of the socio-legal work in administrative law and sketches an analytical framework within which such work should be understood. It brings out the strengths and achievements of socio-legal research in the field, while also showing areas where work might usefully be done in the future. The volume is specially directed at courses in administrative law where a broader perspective fits so well. It should be a useful sourcebook for both teachers and students.
