Description
The diurnal cycle of administrative law metaphors moves steadily forward: first came "government in the sunshine," then "sunset" laws, and now the "twilight of administrative law." But have we really reached the end of the day for the fundamental assumptions on which our system of government rests? Judge Loren A. Smith's argument to that effect weaves together an interesting body of historical, theoretical, and practical learning. His essay provides an apt occasion for serious reflection on the developing corpus of principles that we call administrative law. Not everyone, however, will reach conclusions as somber as his.
