The authors range widely, covering such topics as enhanced decentralisation in Italy (della Cananea, pp.254-256), the working out of the French revolutionary notion of the executive function as one of mere administration (Baranger, Ch.7), the interpretative competence of administrative tribunals in Canada (Sossin, pp.60-63), and recent US practice relating to war, surveillance, and detention of enemy combatants (Young, pp.178-187). Public Law There would seem to be plenty of material here to excite the interest and feed the reflections of comparatively-minded public lawyers. Public Law The Executive and Public Law is a high quality collection that contains a great deal of information about the legal responses to executive power around the world. The volume is particularly strong on executive-judicial relations. The material on the legal structure and accountability of administrative decision making should stimulate further comparative research.
