Taking as his starting point Professor Fullers criticism of the FCC- a criticism Fuller never tested against the Commission's actual operations-Professor Botein examines Fuller's theory of polycentricity by analyzing its contentsJ applying it to concrete situations) and exploring whether there exists any alternatives better than the Commission's present adjudicatory procedure.
