In an era of increased reliance on private regulatory bodies and
globalised economic activity, standardisation is the field where
politics, technical expertise and strategic behaviour meet and
interact. International standard-setting bodies exemplify the rise
of transnational governance and the challenges that it brings about
relating to institutional choice, legitimacy, procedural and
substantive fairness or transparency. This book takes a more
empirical-based approach focusing on the mechanics of international
standard-setting. It constitutes a multidisciplinary inquiry into
the foundations of international standard-setting, an empirically
under-researched yet important area of international informal
lawmaking. Contributors expertly examine the peculiarities of
international standardisation in selected issue-areas and legal
orders and shed light on the attributes of international
standard-setters, allowing comparisons among standard-setting
bodies with a view to identifying best practices and improve our
understanding about standardisation processes.
