In this book, three experts in regulatory law and theory offer a systematic analysis of the use of litigation to impose substantive regulatory measures, including a public choice-based analysis of why agencies choose to litigate in some circumstances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book examines three major cases in which litigation was used to achieve regulatory ends: the EPA’s suit against heavy duty diesel engine manufacturers; asbestos and silica dust litigation by private attorneys; and private and state lawsuits against cigarette manufacturers. The authors argue that litigation is an inappropriate means for establishing substantive regulatory provisions, and they conclude by suggesting a variety of reforms to help curb today’s growing reliance on such practice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54220083003736,"sku":"9780300120028","price":61.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/regulation-by-litigation","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
