Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Basis of Public Interest It is a rather astonishing fact that so few scholars should have been interested to attack directly the definition of public interest as it is used by American courts. It is the basic statement of the right of the government to interfere in business affairs. Under its aegis public utilities arise and the police powers are brought to bear in the field of industry. There is a complete body of literature about the police powers; there has been a vast amount of writing about public utilities; but it has not had to do with the fundamental question of the rights of the public in private business - or business our generation has supposed to be private; or the question of where it is that the rights arose by which those businesses are controlled which we have come to look upon as quasi-public. It is at once clear that if one business is in this sense private and another sufficiently public so that it may be regulated, the difference between the privacy of the one and the public nature of the other must be due to the relationship the business bears to the welfare of the public. A business can only be "public" or "quasi-public" because it affects the "public." This much inheres in the term. May a business once unimportant to this public become important? May a business which once was allowed to go about its affairs free of regulation, suddenly become so important that regulation becomes imperative? And does the system of law we inherit permit us to make these regulations? I think the answer to all these questions is: yes! But when does a business become so important and so dangerous that it may and must be regulated? It seems strange that, with all the effort that has centered upon problems of the police power and public utility control, that there has been so little effective curiosity as to just what qualities arc necessary in a business for it to be regulated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Basis of Public Interest The proper use of the term public utility as the legalists use it would perhaps restrict it to such businesses as are regu lated primarily under the common law duties to serve. These may be determined by the courts. Used in this way, the term would not extend to businesses which are regulated under the legislative police powers and not under the common law rule. It is clear, however, that legislative statutes may narrow com mon law rule and that public utilities may be subjected to legislative as well as common law regulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is public interest law? How effective is it? What are the limits to litigation as a mechanism for conflict resolution? In this study, economists, lawyers, and sociologists evaluate an institutional form that is new to American society and, indeed, to the world--the public interest law (PIL) organization. The book introduces the reader to the structure, resources, and activities of this "nonprofit industry," and also to the factors that affect PIL firms in their choices of cases and methods of handling them. The authors examine PIL's vast range of contemporary public policy concerns. These incude such general topics as the environment, consumerism, housing, employment discrimination, medical care, occupational health and safety, education finance, and taxation. A number of base studies are presented, and a method for economic analysis and evaluation is introduced and applied. The study points to PIL's success in advocating under-represented interests, in winning courtroom decisions, and in translating legal victories into reallocations of resources. At the same time, it notes the bias of PIL towards test-case litigation, a propensity to focus on judicial victories rather than on real social change, and a tendency to use lawyers even when other types of professionals might be more effective. Many of these problems stem from uncertainty of funding and legal restrictions on "nonprofit" organizations. The result is a set of hurdles that distracts PIL firms from their principal goals. The authors do not limit themselves to PIL, but comment on the effectiveness of legal instruments as devices for social change, and on the behavior of the voluntary nonprofit sector, a little-studied portion of the economy. The book presents a fresh approach to the study of both collective-type economic problems and institutional setting in which public interest law works. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

Download or read book Public Values and Public Interest written by Barry Bozeman and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic individualism and market-based values dominate today's policymaking and public management circles—often at the expense of the common good. In his new book, Barry Bozeman demonstrates the continuing need for public interest theory in government. Public Values and Public Interest offers a direct theoretical challenge to the "utility of economic individualism," the prevailing political theory in the western world. The book's arguments are steeped in a practical and practicable theory that advances public interest as a viable and important measure in any analysis of policy or public administration. According to Bozeman, public interest theory offers a dynamic and flexible approach that easily adapts to changing situations and balances today's market-driven attitudes with the concepts of common good advocated by Aristotle, Saint Thomas Aquinas, John Locke, and John Dewey. In constructing the case for adopting a new governmental paradigm based on what he terms "managing publicness," Bozeman demonstrates why economic indices alone fail to adequately value social choice in many cases. He explores the implications of privatization of a wide array of governmental services—among them Social Security, defense, prisons, and water supplies. Bozeman constructs analyses from both perspectives in an extended study of genetically modified crops to compare the policy outcomes using different core values and questions the public value of engaging in the practice solely for the sake of cheaper food. Thoughtful, challenging, and timely, Public Values and Public Interest shows how the quest for fairness can once again play a full part in public policy debates and public administration.
Download or read book Regulation and Public Interests written by Steven P. Croley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not since the 1960s have U.S. politicians, Republican or Democrat, campaigned on platforms defending big government, much less the use of regulation to help solve social ills. And since the late 1970s, "deregulation" has become perhaps the most ubiquitous political catchword of all. This book takes on the critics of government regulation. Providing the first major alternative to conventional arguments grounded in public choice theory, it demonstrates that regulatory government can, and on important occasions does, advance general interests. Unlike previous accounts, Regulation and Public Interests takes agencies' decision-making rules rather than legislative incentives as a central determinant of regulatory outcomes. Drawing from both political science and law, Steven Croley argues that such rules, together with agencies' larger decision-making environments, enhance agency autonomy. Agency personnel inclined to undertake regulatory initiatives that generate large but diffuse benefits (while imposing smaller but more concentrated costs) can use decision-making rules to develop socially beneficial regulations even over the objections of Congress and influential interest groups. This book thus provides a qualified defense of regulatory government. Its illustrative case studies include the development of tobacco rulemaking by the Food and Drug Administration, ozone and particulate matter rules by the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service's "roadless" policy for national forests, and regulatory initiatives by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Federal Trade Commission.
