Regulating Europe" explains why economic and social regulation is rapidly becoming the new frontier of public policy and public administration in Europe. This regulation, implemented by independent regulatory bodies, is replacing older forms of state intervention and the Keynesian welfare state. The book is divided into three parts. Part One lays down the theoretical background to the new developments, including the new model of demand and supply of Community regulation. Part Two presents a series of case studies of particular regulatory policies and institutions in the UK, Germany, France, Spain and the European Union. Part Three evaluates current policy and institutional developments, pointing out how the lack of a tradition of statutory regulation in Europe affects the design of the new institutions. "Regulating Europe" is an informative and lively analysis of an area that is of growing importance in the fields of European studies and public policy.
