Description

Administrative Law: Cases and Materials 10th Edition Ronald A. Cass ISBN 9798894107608

Administrative Law: Cases and Materials reflects a long-standing collaboration among distinguished authors who bring deep experience in teaching, scholarship, and the practice of administrative law. The Tenth Edition retains the book’s hallmark features—its functional structure and extensive use of case studies—while maintaining comprehensive and up-to-date doctrinal coverage. Substantial portions of the text present core doctrinal issues in a format that is both accessible and rigorous, offering clear explanations of foundational arguments along with opportunities to explore the nuances of specific legal debates.

More than half of the book is organized around the major functions of administrative agencies—policymaking, adjudication, enforcement, and licensing—highlighting the shared characteristics of diverse administrative practices and revealing the connections among doctrines that might otherwise appear unrelated. Throughout the text, case studies place leading judicial decisions in their political, institutional, legal, and technical contexts, giving readers a richer understanding of how administrative law operates in practice and how technical doctrines can have significant policy consequences. At the same time, the Tenth Edition reflects the politically charged nature of contemporary federal administrative practice.
