Description

Legislation and Regulation Cases and Materials 5th Edition ISBN 9798892091251

This updated casebook is designed for a first-year course in Legislation and Regulation, offering a well-tested and ready-to-use set of materials for integrating the subject into the 1L curriculum. It focuses on the tools and methods used to interpret legal texts, aiming to equip students with the analytical techniques that lawyers and judges apply when constructing arguments in statutory and regulatory contexts. In addition to honing interpretive skills, the book introduces students to broader questions of institutional design raised by these interpretive challenges. Drawing primarily on U.S. Supreme Court and other appellate decisions, the casebook is supplemented with explanatory notes that incorporate relevant insights from political science, history, economics, and philosophy.

What’s New in the Fifth Edition?

The most significant change in the new edition is a comprehensive revision of Chapter 5, prompted by the Supreme Court’s decision in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which overruled Chevron v. NRDC. The updated chapter features Loper Bright as a principal case, accompanied by extensive new note material. It also substantially reworks the treatment of both the Chevron era and the interpretive approaches that preceded it. Additional updates appear throughout the book, primarily in the form of new, expanded, or revised notes, along with updated citations to recent cases and relevant scholarship. However, the overall structure of the book remains unchanged.
