- Abstract
The article analyzes the power of internal regulation, efforts within the executive branch, and within the offices of individual prosecutors, to control and legitimize prosecutorial discretion, to succeed where external regulation has failed. It discusses four distinct sources for the internal regulations visibly at work in New Orleans, Louisiana. It describes a causal mechanism that elucidates how internal regulation works, emphasizing the distinction between subjective and objective views of discretion.
