Know about the book -

The Accidental Republic is written by John Fabian Witt and published by Harvard University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0674045270 (ISBN 10) and 9780674045279 (ISBN 13).

Witt argues that experiments in accident law at the turn of the 20th century arose out of competing views of the loose network of ideas and institutions that historians call the ideology of free labor. These experiments a century ago shaped 20th- and 21st-century American accident law and laid the foundations of the American administrative state.
