Regulating Europe

Informationen zum Autor Giandomenico Majone Klappentext "Regulating Europe" explains why economic and social regulation is rapidly becoming the new frontier of public policy and public administration in Europe. This regulation, implemented by independent regulatory bodies, is replacing older forms of state intervention and the Keynesian welfare state. The book is divided into three parts. Part One lays down the theoretical background to the new developments, including the new model of demand and supply of Community regulation. Part Two presents a series of case studies of particular regulatory policies and institutions in the UK, Germany, France, Spain and the European Union. Part Three evaluates current policy and institutional developments, pointing out how the lack of a tradition of statutory regulation in Europe affects the design of the new institutions. "Regulating Europe" is an informative and lively analysis of an area that is of growing importance in the fields of European studies and public policy. Zusammenfassung Regulating Europe explains why economic and social regulation is rapidly becoming the new frontier of public policy and public administration in Europe, both at the national and EU levels. Statutory regulation, implemented by independent regulatory bodies, is replacing not only older forms of state intervention but also, to some extent, the redistributive policies of the welfare state. Thus Regulating Europe is an examiniation of the emergence of the regulatory state as the successor of the Keynesian welfare state of the past. Contributions emphasize the parallelism of policy developments at the national and European levels. Part one provides the necessary theoretical background, including a new model of demand and supply of Community regulation. The second part presents a series of case studies of particular regulatory policies and institutions in the UK, Germany, France, Spain and the EU. Part three evaluates current policy and institutional developments, pointing out how the lack of a tradition of statutory regulation in Europe affects the design of the new institutions. Special attention is devoted to the issue of the democratic accountability of expert, politically independent agencies - a problem which, contrary to widespread opinion, is as severe at the national level as it is in Brussels. It is suggested that the requirements of democratic accountability, and of subsidiarity, cannot be met by re-nationalizing European policies, much less by increasing the current level of centralization. A more promising solution is the development of regulatory networks closely integrating national and supranational regulators.
