Reviews"A highly original analysis of administrative justice. This is a must-read for anyone interested in street-level bureaucracy, and how to improve the everyday relationships between citizens and the state." Marc Hertogh, University of Groningen, "Nick O'Brien has made a typically thought-provoking contribution to the literature on administrative justice, powerfully arguing that democratic participation should be at the core of official responses to citizen grievances." Paul Daly, University of Ottawa

SynopsisIn recent years, failures in health and social care, mental health services, public housing and education have dominated headlines and been the subject of much public debate. The means for addressing such concerns remain notably legalistic and subject to a particular brand of liberal legalism that stifles the possibility of transformational intervention. This book argues that there is urgent need for a radical reassessment of the way the law mediates between citizens and the state. Drawing on historical and comparative research, literary, pictorial and cinematic treatments, and the insights of the disability rights movement, Nick O'Brien examines how the everyday regulation of street-level bureaucracy can play an integral part in reimagining postliberal politics and the role of the law.
