Reviews

Rules and Government is a pioneering attempt at analysing an area of the constitution strangely ignored by both public lawyers and by political scientists. It is a scholarly work of high quality on a subject that is likely to stimulate a good deal of further analysis in the future. Times Higher Education Supplement Very well-written and readable... Rules and Government is a valuable and important contribution to the literature of law and government. Modern Law Review Undoubtedly this book will be an important source of material for anyone interested in regulatory design and the interaction of law and administration - this is a good book. It gives a stimulating and illuminating account of rule-making in practice and presents a mass of material clearly and in an attractive way. Public Law Rules and Government makes an important contribution to three areas of academic debate. First if feeds into theoretical discussion of administrative justice. Second, it contributes to a body of empirical studies on regulation. Third, it addresses the only recently developing literature on regulation through European Community rules across the disparate administrative regimes of the various member states... Baldwin succeeds in his aim to set out a middle range theory of legitimacy. Rules and Government does not just address academics but is also relevant for rule-makers who want to improve rule-making. Bettina Lange, Legal Studies
