- This single authored OUP research monograph investigates the issue of legitimate expectations in considerable depth, from the perspectives of legal practice, jurisprudence, and political theory. The book provides complex new theories of the legitimacy of expectations, of the ways legitimate expectations can be generated, and of how and why governmental administrative agencies should pay compensation when creating and then frustrating the legitimate expectations of non-governmental agents. It involved a complex, multi-layered creative process examining a large body of legal cases in administrative law but also providing bespoke, original theorising drawing on concepts of legitimacy, responsibility, fairness, and the public good.
