PREFACE
WE are deeply grateful to Javier Barnes for his initiative and dy na-
mism in proposing the publication of this book and in moving it
through from an idea to a reality with extraordinary effectiveness.
We are delighted to have this opport unity to engage more fully with experts
and young scholars in the Spanish-speaking world. One or both of us were au-
thors in all of the chapters in this book, which were drafted in English. Several
chapters were originally written also with inspired co-authors with whom it
has been a joy to work and whose creativity and energy we are very thank ful to
acknowledge: Megan Donaldson, Nico K risch, Michelle Ratton Sanchez Ba-
din, Stephan Schill, and Rodrigo Vallejo. We thank Javier Barnes and the team
of translators he has assembled, as well as our collaborators Luciana R icart,
Rodrigo Vallejo, and Rene Uruena who translated some of these texts in the
course of working with us on global administrative law projects. We thank too
the original publishers of the chapters, and the editors and project collaborators
who helped improve them. Our work on Law and Global Regulatory Gover-
nance, including this work on Global Administrative Law, has been immensely
influenced by legions of scholars around the world whose work we have read
with profit or who have pushed and challenged our ideas from their standpoints
as academics or practitioners or both. It is impossible to list them here, but we
express our thanks to all. Some of their work has been part of the Global Admi-
nistrative Law Network, a nd some elements are reflected in the Law and Glo-
bal, Governance book series (in English) with Oxford Universit y Press which
we curate jointly with Andrew Hurrell. Our entire project has throughout been
based in the Inst itute for I nternational Law and Justice at NYU Law School.
We have received much help as well as generous fu nding from the Internatio-
nal Development Research Centre (I DRC) in Canada, Carnegie Corporation,
the Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the National Science Foun-
dation, the Filomen D’Agostino and Max Greenberg Faculty Research Fund
at New York University School of Law, and the University of Utah through
President David Pershing and Dean Robert Adler. We have benefited tremen-
dously from working w ith our students at NY U Law School, and in our tea-
ching and research as visiting professors in Paris, the Universit y of Utah, Yale
Law School, and elsewhere, and we thank each of these institutions. NYU Law
School and the exceptional imagination and support of its successive Deans,
John Sexton, Ricky Revesz, and Trevor Morrison, has provided a remarkably
fertile and collaborative environment for the cross-cutting project this field of
inquiry necessitates. Among the many superb colleagues based at or associa-
