Wednesday, 3 February 2021 21:3023:00 (Hong Kong Time)

This book, by two of the world’s leading administrative law scholars, reimagines administrative law as the law of public administration by making competence the focus of administrative law. Grounded in extensive interdisciplinary, historical, and doctrinal analysis, Fisher and Shapiro show why understanding both the capacity and authority of expert public administration is crucial to ensure the legitimacy and accountability of the administrative state.
