Administrative Law in Context

by Colleen M. Flood; Lorne Sossin, Lorne Sossin

This ground-breaking resource is a collaborative work bringing together the expertise and varied perspectives of Canada’s leading scholars. Students will benefit from the multiple approaches provided and gain a greater sense of the real world of administrative decision-making. Concentrating on the general principles of administrative law, and the context in which administrative decision-making occurs, the authors convey a sense of how administrative boards and tribunals work in practice; for example, how decisions on budgets, staffing, websites, and translation can make the difference between justice and injustice; and how administrative law works differently in the politically charged context of public inquiries. In addition to the critical analysis and theory that the author team of leading academics provides, students are also given practical hands-on tips and checklists for those planning to practise administrative law.

I read the fourth edition ft. Paul Daly. Sometimes it felt like a collage of pet-project essays. Most of the time it was fine.
