目的是扩大法律学术imagination, this Research Agenda takes a tripolar approach to administrative law. It opens the boundaries of administrative law scholarship to new subject areas, exemplifies and opens for consideration several different attitudes to research, and illustrates a multiplicity of different ways of writing about the subject.
Drawing on the expertise of an impressive selection of contributors, with experience of research in different administrative law fields, this book breaks away from the dominance of doctrinal analysis which permeates the existing literature and explores contemporary, innovative methods of research. Chapters present a concise account of what is known and unknown about administrative law, as well as recasting what was considered known. The book provides an arena for an exchange of ideas, all of which are designed to push scholars into thinking seriously about research methods and to develop novel scholarly agendas that can enrich administrative law.
Addressing a void in current research and scholarship, this timely book will be of interest to lawyers and academics keen to push beyond the current boundaries of administrative law. Degree-level students and early career researchers in the fields of comparative and public law will also benefit from this discerning Research Agenda.

Critical Acclaim
‘This is a must-read – a collection that is deliberately suggestive, provocative and wide-ranging. Administrative law scholarship is a big tent, comprising much more than doctrinal exposition and analysis of common law principles of judicial review. This collection of essays by leading scholars in the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Australia demonstrates other ways of looking at doctrine, as well as the potential and need for researching new or increasingly urgent aspects of the law’s relationships with the administrative state. Often (although not always) empirically focused, leading scholars address the methodological, normative, and even technological challenges and opportunities for those engaging in and reacting to the ever-changing modes of public administration and regulation.’
