Regulation And Regulatory Processes, Cary Coglianese, Robert Kagan
Robert Kagan
Regulation of business activity is nearly as old as law itself. In the last century, though, the use of regulation by modern governments has grown markedly in both volume and significance, to the point where nearly every facet of today’s economy is subject to some form of regulation. When successful, regulation can deliver important benefits to society; however, regulation can also impose undue costs on the economy and, when designed or implemented poorly, fail to meet public needs at all. Given the importance of sound regulation to society, its study by scholars of law and social science is also of …

Rena I. Steinzor

Judicial review of administrative decision making is an essential institutional check on agency power. Recently, however, the Department of Justice dramatically revised its regulations in an attempt to insulate its decision making from public and federal court scrutiny.

In May 2004, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a final rule to be published in the Federal Register that would establish eligibility criteria for persons seeking to donate sperm and other human cells and tissues.

The FDA does not, however, make a distinction between MSMs who practice safe sex and those who have unprotected sex, nor does it identify men who …
