A Brief History of Administrative Law [No. 86]

Professor Gary Lawson outlines the last hundred years of administrative law and how it has changed over time. The birth of administrative law happened during the Progressive era, a time when there was a new demand for specialized expertise. Agencies and regulations grew exponentially in the New Deal era when Congress and the courts relinquished most oversight powers. In the 1960s, administrative regulations extended to even broader areas of society, such as environmental regulations, but the legislature and the courts reasserted some control over the agencies.

Professor Gary Lawson is the Philip S. Beck Professor at Boston University School of Law.

As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.

This is the main question . Agencies pertain to exactly what body themselves ? Who exactly ? The legislators ?
