This chapter addresses three particular areas of substantive review: jurisdictional issues (including review for error of law); irrationality and the doctrines of relevant considerations and proper purposes. First, the chapter argues that administrative law values are useful in distinguishing jurisdictional from non-jurisdictional issues and in understanding debates about ‘deference’. Second, it argues that administrative law values are useful in understanding rationality review—in particular, in calibrating the range of reasonable responses, a key concept in the contemporary approach to irrationality. Third, the chapter argues that the structure of relevancy and propriety can be understood as being influenced by administrative law values. Given that in these areas there are significant divergences—certainly at the level of detail—between Commonwealth jurisdictions, the analysis in this chapter will be conducted at a higher level of abstraction than the analysis in the other chapters. Nonetheless, individual self-realisation, good administration, electoral legitimacy and decisional autonomy can be understood to influence the contemporary law of substantive review.

Abstract Friedrich Kratochwil engages critically with the emergence of a global administrative law and its consequences for the democratic legitimacy of global governance. While he makes important contributions to our understanding of global governance, he does not sufficiently discuss the differences in the institutional design of new forms of global law-making and their consequences for the effectiveness and legitimacy of global governance. I elaborate on these limitations and outline a comparative research agenda on the emergence, design, and effectiveness of the diverse arrangements that constitute the complex institutional architecture of contemporary global governance.

Tulisan ini mengkaji tentang buku Interpreting the Qur’an Towards A Contemporary Approach karya Abdullah Saeed yang menawarkan sebuah metodologi interpretasi konteksual, yang dia sebut sebagai contextual approach, secara lebih rinci dibandingkan para pengkaji Qur’an kontemporer lainnya. Dalam buku tersebut, dia menawarkan sebuah hierarki nilai dalam rangka memahami ayat-ayat ethico-legal. Penulis merasa adanya kebutuhan mendesak untuk mengenal lebih jauh tentang interpretasi kontekstual Abdullah Saeed sebagai counter atas maraknya interpretasi tekstual yang mewabah di kalangan umat Islam dewasa ini. Untuk itu, artikel ini akan mengkaji metodologi interpretasi kontekstual yang digagas oleh Abdullah Saeed secara umum, dan konsep hierarki nilai yang dia tawarkan secara khusus. Penulis melihat bahwa konsep hierarki nilai yang dia perkenalkan sebenarnya adalah kelanjutan dari ‘general principles’ yang digagas oleh Fazlur Rahman.
