Description
It is not the purpose of this work to explicate the various arguments for or against citizen suits. These arguments have been presented in detail elsewhere. Rather, this Article will explore some of the remaining issues which face those who must consider the use of citizen litigation as a vehicle for involving the public in the policy-making process. Such factors as administrative efficiency, democratic participation and the difficult-to-describe but critically important need to arrive at a concept of the public interest, must all be examined.
