Features: This book employs comparative, historical, and empirical analytical methods to conduct an in-depth and systematic research and review of issues in administrative contract theory. The scope covers fundamental theoretical questions such as the definition of the scope of administrative contracts, the relationship between administrative contracts and the concept of administrative law compliance, the principles of allocating rights and obligations between the government and the parties involved in the contract, the procedural norms and controls for the government's exercise of administrative contract power, and the construction of relevant remedial systems. The book also conducts empirical research on representative contract forms such as "government procurement contracts," "public safety commitment agreements," and "sham contracts" through case studies. The second revised edition retains the original structural framework while adding many new research topics in response to the development of administrative contracts and making corresponding revisions.
