'The fields of comparative administrative law and its close cousin,
regulatory law, are now experiencing the explosion that occurred a
while ago in comparative constitutional law. This Bignami and
Zaring volume provides both excellent introduction into these
newest developments and a record of substantial research
achievements.' - Martin Shapiro, University of California,
Berkeley, School of Law Regulation today is global. It affects
everything from e-commerce to product safety to air quality and
much more. How is regulation made and enforced in the multiple
domestic and international jurisdictions called upon to address the
problems of international markets and global society? To understand
the global regulatory process, it is necessary to move beyond
conventional sub-fields of law like administrative law and
international law. Drawing on contributions from an international
team of leading scholars with diverse subject and country
expertise, Comparative Law and Regulation introduces a new field of
legal research geared at understanding the operation of the
regulatory process across the world. The volume affords
cutting-edge analysis of the entire gamut of regulatory law:
rulemaking by bureaucracies, legislatures, and private bodies;
oversight by public and private actors; civil and criminal
enforcement; and judicial review. The chapters cover over thirty
different domestic and international jurisdictions, including the
United States, Germany, the European Union, India, China, South
Korea, Colombia, the World Trade Organization, and private
investor-state arbitral tribunals. The theoretical and
methodological innovations introduced in this book will make it
compulsory reading for scholars of public law, comparative law, and
international law as well as those working in public policy,
political science, and economics. For legal professionals in
government agencies and the private sector, it affords both a
useful theoretical framing of the complex issues involved in
international and comparative regulation and an up-to-date overview
of the legal and technical aspects. Contributors include: J. Baert
