Can administrative law respond adequately to the challenges posed by modern-day executive government?  In a provocative new article, Michael S. Greve (and co-author Ashley C. Parrish) argue that administrative law presupposes a Congress that is jealous of its legislative powers, yet Congress has increasingly disempowered itself:  It fails to update old statues even when they are outdated or have assumed contours that no Congress would countenance.  And when Congress does legislate, it tends to enact highly convoluted and often incoherent "hyper-legislation."  At this luncheon, Professor Greve and Edward W. Warren will discuss this new administrative-law regime and its effects on agencies and courts.
