American Institutions of Public Law: Statutes and Regulations
This course will consider some fundamental structural characteristics of the American political and legal system having particular importance for public law. We will examine American approaches to the material of public policy: statutes, regulations and the institutions that create and administer them. Topics will include Congress, the President and the administrative agencies; the process for forming statutes and regulations; and current disputes about the proper materials and techniques of interpretation.
