About the Authors
  • Despite the growing scholarly interest in comparative public law, there remain relatively few works on the subject. Contemporary French Administrative Law aims to redress that imbalance, offering English-language readers an authoritative introduction to the key features of French administrative law and its institutions. The French legal system is among the most well-developed and influential in the world, and, as procedures continually adapt to European and international influences, it has never been more worthy of research, study and interrogation. This book employs a wide range of recent, illustrative cases to demonstrate how French administrative law works both in theory and in practice. Using a systematic approach and covering everything from judicial review to public contracts, this is a highly valuable text for any student or researcher with an interest in French law. The book is also available as Open Access.

    • Offers a comparative approach to French public law, which, despite its growth as a research interest, is offered by few other titles
    • Assumes little-to-no knowledge of French law and written accessibly for an English-speaking/common law audience
    • Systematic outline of the key aspects of French administrative law, offering readers a simple and informative guide to French legal systems, institutions and professions
    • Uses illustrative examples from real-life cases to demonstrate how the law works in practice
    • The book is also available as Open Access
