RESTREPO MEDINA, Manuel Alberto. THE FITTING OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW TO THE COMTEMPORARY STATE. Estud. Socio-Juríd [online]. 2002, vol.4, n.2, pp.130-153. ISSN 0124-0579.

The conception about the state determines its legal regime, especially in issues related to administration activity and structure. Thus, in addition to its current complexity, the parading change from the interventionist to the regulator state, has brought an adjustment of the legal system that regulates states entities, especially the executive branch. The process generated by this change has been determined by some contemporary tendencies. The most prevalent of these tendencies is "run away from the administrative law" which implementation has operated through the adoption of civil law to regulate activity and administration of the Public Administration. Another way has been through the establishment of elements of private law in institutional forms of public law, either because it fits into activity nature, or into the entity' structure. Having in mid that the analytical objective of administrative law study is, in great measure, the regulation of State structure and its activity, this article makes an analysis of the way by which, the tendency mentioned, has pretended to fit into the contents of administrative law to the current change of State model and the risks that this process brings about.
