Recenzje

’This useful edited collection brings together international perspectives on the use of inquisitorial processes in administrative law. Written by leading academics from different jurisdictions, it provides valuable comparative insights. It will be welcomed by academics, researchers and policy makers, and is an important addition to the literature on administrative justice.’ Mary Seneviratne, Nottingham Trent University, UK ’Departing from the traditional preoccupation with the principles of judicial review, this book is part of a new generation of administrative law scholarship that assesses the efficacy and implications of models of administrative process. The comparative perspective is particularly effective in drawing attention to the assumptions underlying different kinds of processes, and in reminding us to consider why we do things the way we do.’ Beth Bilson, University of Saskatchewan, Canada
