This is an original and ambitious book that seeks to re-theorise
regulation in ways that place embedded social bonds and
socio-economic sustainability at the heart of regulatory principle.
Findlay and Lim range across a wide landscape of economic history,
cultural anthropology and political theory perspectives, weaving
them into a unique perspective on regulation that challenges the
underlying assumptions of much of the existing literature. Their
critical focus on the centrality of private property rights in
regulatory theory is a welcome move in this stimulating book that
deserves to provoke debate.' - Bronwen Morgan, UNSW, Australia'Mark
Findlay and Lim Si Wei explore how economics and governance are
socially embedded through deft moves from one part of the globe to
another. How can there be regulation that is unresponsive to
culturally distinctive East Asian principles of 'face'? How can
integrity survive in migrant labour contracts? This is a searing
engagement with challenges of inequality in contemporary capitalism
that can only be confronted by a principled embedded regulation.
The limits of Western models of the national regulator are
evocatively exposed with a distinctive theoretical sophistication.'
- John Braithwaite, Australian National University This ambitious
book takes up the grand challenge to design regulatory thinking for
a global future beyond wealth and growth, and towards social
sustainability. Assuming a 'South World' perspective on market
regulation and social sustainability, the authors present the
options and possibilities for radically repositioning regulatory
principle. The analysis of intersections between the market
economies of the South and North reconsiders fundamental regulatory
relationships and outcomes motivated by sustainability rather than
individual wealth creation and economic growth models. The book
aims to return economy to society at a critical global juncture,
demanding new and creative regulatory intervention outside the
regulatory state model. Along with new perspectives on regulation,
the analysis offers a better understanding of the problematic
future of global regulation by revealing the different reasons for
fragmentation within and between very different regulatory spaces.
Students of social development and scholars researching market
economics and the global crisis will find this book to be a
valuable and challenging resource. Policy makers and readers
interested in law and regulation will also benefit from the
thoughtful discussion presented in this volume. Contents: 1.
