Zusatztext [This book], will serve as an excellent resource for empirical researchers seeking to isolate the influence of judicial review on administrative decision-making, administrative law teachers wanting to enrich student comprehension with case-studies, and for all scholars interested in understanding the impact of judicial review on government action. Furthermore, Halliday's book will be a tantalizing read for administrative lawyers because it presents, the form of compelling narratives, 'smoking-gun evidence' of non-compliance. He contributes significantly to the field by providing a sound analytical framework for further inquiry.His methodological approach breathes life into the often abstracted and decontextualized world of administrative decision-making, and his revealing interviews with HPU decision-makers make his work accessible to a broad range of readers....Halliday's ability to weave narrative, social theory and legal doctrine creates a thought provoking text. Informationen zum Autor Simon Halliday is the Nicholas de B Katzenbach Research Fellow at the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies, Oxford University. Klappentext How effective is judicial review in securing compliance with administrative law? This book presents an empirically-based study of the influence of judicial review on government agencies. In doing so,it explores judicial review from a regulatory perspective and uses the insights of the regulation literature to reflect on the capacity of judicial review to modify government behaviour. On the basis of extensive research with heavily litigated government agencies, the book develops a framework for analysing and researching the regulatory capacity of judicial review. Combining empirical and legal analysis, it describes the conditions which must exist to maximise judicial review's capacity to secure compliance with administrative law.
