This book offers an in-depth analysis of the function of
certification in general and of certification systems in a range of
different sectors. The authors examine certification from both a
theoretical and a practical standpoint and from the perspectives of
different disciplines, including law, economics, management, and
the social sciences. They also discuss instruments that help ensure
the quality of certification, which can range from public law
measures such as accreditation, to private law incentives, to
deterrents, such as liability towards victims. Further, they assess
the role of competition between certification bodies. Readers will
learn the commonalities as well as the necessary distinctions
between certification bodies in various fields, which may stem from
the different functions they serve. These similarities and
differences may also be the result of different types of damage
that the certified producer or service provider could potentially
cause to individuals or to the public at large. Often, companies
use certification bodies as an argument to assure the general
public, e.g. regarding the safety of medical products. Closer
inspection reveals, however, that sometimes certification bodies
themselves lack credibility. The book offers essential information
on the benefits and pitfalls associated with certification.
