French Administrative Law

This new edition of the leading English-language text provides a detailed profile of the Conseil and an up-to-date overview of le droit administratif, which is regarded, alongside the Code Napolon, as the most notable achievement of French legal science. The book includes eleven expanded appendices, including statistics, model pleadings and other illustrations, providing an invaluable and accessible source of information on the French administrative courts, their procedure and case-load. Throughout the approach is comparative, with frequent references to developments in United Kingdom administrative law and in the EC institutions.
