Recenzii
Mike Livermore and Ricky Revesz have written a terrific critique of politicized dysfunction in regulation, and a call to restore analytic rigor.
Brilliant and provocative ... Livermore & Revesz give a richly resourced account of the political history of cost-benefit analysis, including a detailed history of the partisan shift in support for cost-benefit analysis over time.
Terrific.
Reviving Rationality is an important read from two of the legal academy's foremost experts on the administrative state. It provides a nice history of cost-benefit analysis, how it has evolved analytically, institutionally, and how it has mapped to our changing political landscape.
A serious affliction requires potent and targeted medicine. And the situation that Livermore and Revesz so deftly describe in Reviving Rationality is clearly serious. The authors recount nothing short of a siege undertaken by the Trump administration to undermine the institution of cost-benefit analysis (CBA). They carefully and convincingly detail the administration's tactics, ranging from manipulating the social cost of carbon to adopting policies that focus on costs and ignore regulatory benefits. This is a book that should be read widely by academics and practitioners alike.
With Reviving Rationality, Michael Livermore and Richard Revesz ("L&R") have produced another important, timely, and provocative work on the use of cost-benefit analysis in government decisionmaking ... L&R's book is important exactly because it reminds us what was at stake during the Trump Administration.
One of the book's important contributions is its meticulous documentation of just how incompetent, if not dishonest, the Trump Administration was in its regulatory analysis. The book also shows how often the Administration violated the practices of its predecessors, Democratic and Republican alike. Many of the individual episodes Livermore and Revesz discuss are familiar, but the level of detail and range of incidents they provide will be useful to readers with many different perspectives on government regulation.
Mike Livermore and Ricky Revesz should be applauded for doing the near-impossible in Reviving Rationality -- spinning a lively and engaging narrative about the driest of subjects, the conduct of cost-benefit analysis (CBA) by government bureaucrats. The story they tell has all the elements of a classic morality play -- a hero (cost-benefit analysis), a villain (Donald Trump), and an epic struggle between good and evil (or, more specifically, between rationality and irrationality). I certainly enjoyed the ride, and there's no question that Livermore and Revesz have done the world a great service by so carefully and painstakingly documenting so many of the excesses and outrages of the Trump administration's approach to regulatory policy. This book will undoubtedly take its place in an easy-to-reach spot on my bookshelf next to their previous volume, Retaking Rationality, which has been an indispensable reference.
This is an important, must-read book and intervention into current debates about the role of cost-benefit analysis and centralized review of regulations ... Democratic and Republican administrations would be wise to read -- and apply the lessons learned from -- both Retaking Rationality and Reviving Rationality.
Reviving Rationality by Michael Livermore and Richard Revesz is a timely and important work. While it has many virtues, the one that particularly struck me is its seamless blending of the arcane world of cost-benefit analysis and regulation with the broader political context of the Trump years. Clearly as Livermore and Revesz articulate, this broader context had profound impacts on the regulatory world from 2017 until 2021.
The more this book is circulated, the better, especially in public policy classrooms, where it might have the most influence and do the most good for the longest time.
Reviving Rationality painstakingly documents the Trump EPA's playbook to shift the agency's priorities away from sound science and public health protections, toward fossil fuel polluters and other special interests. Livermore and Revesz detail the deep ramifications it has had for the agency's ability to build cleaner American cars, protect children's brains from the damages of mercury pollution, tackle the growing threats of climate change, and so much more. They also provide a path forward for restoring EPA and reestablishing the rule of law to protect our health, our communities, and our children's future.
A spectacular achievement, and the best imaginable foundation for thinking about the modern regulatory state. In an era focused on pandemics, climate change, inequality, and public health, Livermore and Revesz show that using the best available science, and the best available economics, offers the best path forward — and will help the least advantaged among us.
This well-reasoned book is refreshing therapy for those of us who are sick of the ideological wars in America's regulatory politics. The authors call for resumption of the legitimate roles of expertise and analysis in public administration.
This book is another thoughtful and thought-provoking contribution by the authors to our understanding of critical aspects of the regulatory process. The issues discussed and perspectives provided will be particularly important to our country in the years ahead. It is a must read for those involved in the process as well as those who want a clear explanation for how we can and should evaluate government policy.
