This book offers a broad and incisive analysis of the governance of
privacy protection with regard to personal information in
contemporary advanced industrial states. Based on research across
many countries, it discusses the goals of privacy protection policy
and the changing discourse surrounding the privacy issue,
concerning risk, trust and social values. It analyzes at length the
contemporary policy instruments that together comprise the
inventory of possible solutions to the problem of privacy
protection. It argues that privacy protection depends upon an
integration of these instruments, but that any country's efforts
are inescapably linked with the actions of others that operate
outside its borders. The book concludes that, in a 'globalizing'
world, this regulatory interdependence could lead either to a
search for the highest possible standard of privacy protection, or
to competitive deregulation, or to a more complex outcome
reflecting the nature of the issue and its policy responses.
