‘While Administrative Law has long been recognised as an important area of the law domestically, its comparative and international aspects have received less attention. An important exception to this trend are the first two editions of this work which brought together the scholarship of scholars from multiple jurisdictions and put them in conversation with each other. This third edition, appearing in print a decade and a half after the first edition, takes that project forward by incorporating – as the subtitle indicates – “new voices and new perspectives.” The twenty chapters that constitute this volume deepen the comparative analysis in earlier editions – the chapter on the public trust doctrine in South Asia, for instance, alone covers the law in six nations. The geographical spread of the volume has consciously been widened. Chapters that focus on the experience of administrative law in the six Caribbean nations or those that analyse developments in Bhutan and Nepal sit alongside those of more traditional jurisdictions such as the US, Canada, Australia, the EU and its constituent nation-states. Several chapters push the boundaries of existing administrative law by focusing on the concept of accountability in its varied manifestations. A significant number of chapters analyse the concept of administrative governance beyond the nation state, alerting scholars in the field to dimensions that have been understudied. The volume as a whole provides much stimulation to students of administrative law – old and new – and will quickly become a standard reference text.’
