Increased regulatory competition has sharpened the comparative
awareness of advantages or disadvantages of different national
models of political economy, economic organization, governance and
regulation. Although institutional change is slow and subject to
functional complementarities as well as social and cultural
entrenchment, at least some features of successful modern market
economies have been in the process of converging over the last
decades. The most important change is a shift in governance from
state to the market. As bureaucratic ex-ante control is replaced by
judicial ex-post control, administrative discretion is replaced by
the rule of law as guidelines for the economy. Furthermore, at
least to some extent, public enforcement is being reduced in favor
of private enforcement by way of disclosure, enhanced liability,
and correspondent litigation for damages. Corporatist approaches to
governance are giving way to market approaches, and outsider and
market-oriented corporate governance models seem to be replacing
insider-based regimes. This transition is far from smooth and poses
a daunting challenge to regulators and academics trying to redefine
the fundamental governance and regulatory setting. They are
confronted with the task of making or keeping the national
regulatory structure attractive to investors in the face of
competitive pressures from other jurisdictions to adopt
state-of-the-art solutions. At the same time, however, they must
establish a coherent institutional framework that accommodates the
efficient, modern rules with the existing and hard-to-change
institutional setting. These challenges - put in a comparative and
interdisciplinary perspective - are the subject of the book. As a
reflection of the transnationality of the issues addressed, the
world's three leading economies and their legal systems are
included on an equal basis: the EU, the U.S., and Japan across each
of the subtopics of corporations, bureaucracy and regulation,
markets, and intermediaries.
