"Professionals and government officials often encounter a variety of legal and public policy questions which have economic, sociological, political and spatial overtones and implications." "This volume brings together lawyers and social scientists to discuss pertinent issues from their relevant expertise, with the aim of providing new insights into the different training, skills and background of law and the social sciences, which would in turn contribute to a more symbiotic relationship between the two disciplines to help policy and decision-makers be fair and efficient in implementing or advising regulatory and developmental programmes." "This volume should be a useful reference to policy-makers, professionals advising the government, lawyers and researchers undertaking inter-disciplinary studies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
