About this listen

The rise of the administrative state is the most significant political development in American politics over the past century. While our Constitution separates powers into three branches, and requires that the laws are made by elected representatives in the Congress, today most policies are made by unelected officials in agencies where legislative, executive, and judicial powers are combined. This threatens constitutionalism and the rule of law.

This book examines the history of administrative power in America and argues that modern administrative law has failed to protect the principles of American constitutionalism as effectively as earlier approaches to regulation and administration.

The book is published by University of Missouri Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

“A definitive model of outstanding scholarship and a timely, much needed contribution…” (Midwest Book Review)

“This book is worth the time and effort to read because of what it says about the future of the Constitution.” (The Electric Review)

“A landmark in the field.” (Johnathan O’Neill, Georgia Southern University)
