Emphasizing that administrative law must be understood within the context of the political system, this core text combines a descriptive systems approach with a social science focus. Author Kenneth F. Warren explains the role of administrative law in shaping, guiding, and restricting the actions of administrative agencies. Providing comprehensive coverage, he examines the field not only from state and federal angles, but also from the varying perspectives of legislators, administrators, and the public.
Substantially revised, the sixth edition emphasizes current trends in administrative law, recent court decisions, and the impact the Trump administration has had on public administration and administrative law. Special attention is devoted to how the neo-conservative revival, strengthened by Trump appointments to the federal judiciary, have influenced the direction of administrative law and impacted the administrative state. Administrative Law in the Political System: Law, Politics, and Regulatory Policy, Sixth Edition is a comprehensive administrative law textbook written by a social scientist for social science students, especially upper division undergraduate and graduate students in political science, public administration, public management, and public policy and administration programs.
"This extremely important and valuable book, now in its sixth edition, has stood the test of time. Professor Warren exquisitely explains U.S. administrative law in nontechnical terms while also demonstrating its central position in the American political system. The book is ideal for political science, public administration, and a variety of social science courses covering the legal dimensions of contemporary U.S. public management, policy, and democratic governance. No other book covers administrative law as part and parcel of the American political system as well or comprehensively as this text."
David Rosenbloom, American University, USA
"Ken Warren has produced another fine edition of a book that is already established as a landmark in the field. Grounded in the sometimes-harsh realities of contemporary public management, the book and its author constantly remind the reader that the rule of law is the wellspring of our democracy. Professor Warren has carefully chosen the illustrative cases that end each chapter. The overall result is a sophisticated but accessible treatise that holds value for the seasoned scholar, as well the student being introduced to administrative law."
