Law and Leviathan

In "Law and Leviathan," Cass Sunstein and Adrian Vermeule explore the legitimacy and accountability issues surrounding the modern administrative state. They propose that this system can be improved by adhering to a moral framework in administrative law, emphasizing principles such as transparency, predictability, and avoidance of contradictory rules. By implementing these principles, they argue, public officials can restore faith in governance and better uphold the rule of law, addressing critics' concerns about the current state of American public law.
