Answer to Question 1

In the early 20th century, the rapidly industrializing society was faced with new types of problems, such as how to protect the interests of workers and consumers.

The increasing complexity of society required legislators to enact broad rules of law with the precision and detail needed to address immediate problems.

The large number of governmental bureaucracies that exist today are authorized by federal, state, and local governments to issue rules and regulations consistent with principles specified in a statute or municipal ordinance. Administrative regulations are the newest, fastest-growing, and least understood source of law. The federal government alone issues thousands of pages of new rules and policies each year.
