Administrative Law, by Léon Aucoc

Administrative Law, by Léon Aucoc, is a classic nineteenth-century French work and an important contribution to the development of modern Administrative Law. In these two volumes, Aucoc provides a systematic study of French public administration and administrative law, based on lectures delivered at the École des Ponts et Chaussées.

The author examines the organization and functioning of public administration, the powers of administrative authorities, and the legal relationships between the State and private individuals. The work also addresses public services, administrative activity, contracts, property, public works, and the various forms of State intervention.

Aucoc belongs to the generation of major French administrative-law scholars who helped establish the doctrinal foundations of modern Administrative Law. The work is therefore particularly valuable for understanding the historical development of French Public Law and its subsequent influence on European and Latin American legal scholarship.
