  • More about Administrative Competence: Reimagining Administrative Law


Fisher and Shapiro's book reimagines administrative law as the law of public administration, focusing on understanding the capacity and authority of expert public administration to ensure legitimacy and accountability. They support a new study of the administrative process and a revised Administrative Procedure Act (APA).

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 356 pages
Publication date: 30 September 2021
Publisher: Cambridge University Press


This groundbreaking book, penned by two esteemed scholars in the field of administrative law, presents a novel perspective on administrative law by shifting its focus towards the realm of public administration. Through a comprehensive interdisciplinary, historical, and doctrinal analysis, Fisher and Shapiro elucidate the significance of understanding both the capacity and authority of expert public administration in ensuring the legitimacy and accountability of the administrative state. In response to the current state of administrative law, which they perceive as precarious, they advocate for a fresh study of the administrative process, which would be spearheaded by an Attorney Generals Committee on Administrative Procedure. This initiative would ultimately result in a revised Administrative Procedure Act (APA). This book is an essential read for anyone with an interest in administrative law and its transformative potential.
