Conciliation Des Litiges Et Formes Alternatives De Régulation En Droit Administratif Fédéral, France Houle, Daniel Mockle
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
Despite the considerable attention devoted to Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in Canada, few studies are available on its impact in public law, especially in federal administrative law. Yet, there is much evidence that these techniques are increasingly used and it is therefore timely to catalogue and classify them. To this end, a distinction is drawn between dispute resolution techniques used for transactional purposes and those used for regulatory purposes.

Salvaging The Welfare State?: The Prospects For Judicial Review Of The Canada Health & Social Transfer, Lorne Sossin
Salvaging The Welfare State?: The Prospects For Judicial Review Of The Canada Health & Social Transfer, Lorne Sossin
Dalhousie Law Journal
The Canadian Health and Social Transfer ("CHST"), which came into force on April 1, 1996, contains no national standards relating to the quality of social welfare. The goal of this new transfer was to promote provincial flexibility in the sphere of social policy. The author argues that this flexibility may undermine the core of the Canadian welfare state.

Public Choice Theory And The Fragmented Web Of The Contemporary Administrative State, Jim Rossi
Public Choice Theory And The Fragmented Web Of The Contemporary Administrative State, Jim Rossi
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
In the recent book, Greed, Chaos and Governance: Using Public Choice to Improve Public Law (Yale U. Press 1997), Jerry Mashaw addresses the convergence between public choice and administrative law. This review essay summarizes Mashaw's arguments and explores his use of public choice tools. The review suggests that, absent some unifying theoretical perspective for understanding administrative governance outside of public choice method, little more than rampant pessimism or fragmented lessons about the administrative state can be taken.
