Summary/Abstract: On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the publication of the monograph "Allgemeines Verwaltungsrecht" (General Administrative Law), authored by Adolf Merkl, an eminent representative of the Viennese School of Law, this note succinctly presents the salient determinants of his theory of administrative law, enunciated in accordance with Kelsen's principles of what is known as his pure theory of law. It is indubitable that in the history of the science of administrative law great credit indeed goes to Merkl for having clearly and precisely defined, delineated and thoroughly theoretically elaborated a standard corpus of pertinent problems which should and must be studied by this relatively young legal discipline, placing it thus, as it were, side by side with its senior paragons, in particular the science of private law.
