The European Union as a Global Regulator? The European Union is often depicted as a dominant global regulator. The purpose of this volume is to move beyond establishing that the EU influences global regulation towards an emphasis on the conditions with which it exerts that influence. Toward that end it focuses on the EU's active efforts both bilateral and multilateral to shape regulations beyond its borders. The empirical chapters in this volume are explicitly comparative among foreign partners across international contexts over time and across issues. The more conceptual contributions posit an explanation for the EU’s choice of regulatory cooperation strategy and take stock of Market Power Europe as a dynamic conceptual framework for understanding and researching the EU as a power. Collectively this volume advances three arguments: the utility of the EU’s regulatory power resources is context-specific; debates about what kinds of power projection the EU has been found to be at least as currently conceived unproductive; and that the EU’s engagement in the world is better explained through general theories of international political economy. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public Policy. | The European Union as a Global Regulator? GBP 46.99 1
Financial Stability and Prudential Regulation A Comparative Approach to the UK US Canada Australia and Germany Financial stability is one of the key tenets of a central bank’s functions. Since the financial crisis of 2007-2009 an area of hot debate is the extent to which the central bank should be involved with prudential regulation. This book examines the macro and micro-prudential regulatory frameworks and systems of the United Kingdom Australia the United States Canada and Germany. Drawing on the regulator frameworks of these regions this book examines the central banks’ roles of crisis management resolution and prudential regulation. Alison Lui compares the institutional structure of the new ‘twin-peaks’ model in the UK to the Australian model and the multi-regulatory US model and the single regulatory Canadian model. The book also discusses the extent the central bank in these countries as well as the ECB are involved with financial stability and argues that the institutional architecture and geographical closeness of the Bank of England and Financial Policy Committee give rise to the fear that the UK central bank may become another single super-regulator which may provide the Bank of England with too much power. As a multi-regional comparative study on the importance and effectiveness of prudential regulation this book will be of great use and interest to students and researchers in finance and bank law economics and banking. | Financial Stability and Prudential Regulation A Comparative Approach to the UK US Canada Australia and Germany GBP 42.99 1

Public Goods and the Fourth Industrial Revolution Inclusive Models of Finance Distribution and Production The fourth industrial revolution characterized by digitization artificial intelligence and augmented reality and megatrends such as globalization urbanization demographic changes and the knowledge-based economy will trigger a series of profound technological economic social and environmental changes that will permanently and irreversibly change the role of the state in meeting social needs. Industry 4. 0 will also change the type nature and scope of public goods and how they are produced financed delivered and consumed. This book redefines the current paradigm of public goods. It proposes a model of production and distribution of public goods that acknowledges the participation of entities from the public private and nonprofit sectors. The authors argue that these entities would participate in the production financing distribution and consumption of such goods. From a theoretical point of view such an inclusive approach involving the expansion of the classical state – market dichotomy with new entities including citizens themselves leads to a new conceptualization and approach towards public goods. The model assumes shared responsibility subsidiarity and paternalistic libertarianism and it allows the state to create new entities of an educational or fiscal nature while remaining the regulator of public services and distribution. Additionally the book analyzes changes regarding the perception of public goods in the era of the fourth industrial revolution across selected sectors such as healthcare and pension systems education local public goods and public utility services. The book is primarily addressed to researchers scholars and students across social and technical sciences and it will also be a useful guide for central and local administration bodies responsible for public policy.

The Politics of Clientelism In Latin America the state is the prime regulator coordinator and pace-setter of the entire national system the apex of the pyramid from which patronage wealth power and programs flow. The state bears responsibility for the realization of civic needs providing goods and services to each citizen. Doing so requires the exercise and maintenance of social and political control. It is John Martz's contention that clientelism underlines the fundamental character of Latin American social and political life. As the modernizing bureaucratic state has developed in Latin America there has been a concurrent shifting away from clientelistic relationships. Yet in one form or another political clientelism still remains central. Clientelism occurs when large numbers of low-status individuals such as those in the slums of rural and underdeveloped areas are protected by a powerful patron who defends their interests in return for deference or material reward. In Colombia the rural patron has become a member of the higher clientelistic system as well; he is dependent on a patron who operates at the national level. This enables urban elites to mobilize low-status clients for such acts as mass demonstrations of political loyalty to the regime. Thus traditional clientelism has been modified through the process of modernization. Part One of The Politics of Clientelism examines Colombian politics focusing on the incarnation and traditional forms of clientelism. Part Two explores the policies of Colombian governance from the administrations of Lleras Camargo through Julio Cesar Turbay Ayala. Part Three discusses the modernization and restructuring of Colombia in recent decades under Belisario Betancur Virgilio Barco and Cesar Gaviria. As the modernizing bureaucratic state has unfolded there has been a similar shift in many clientelistic relationships. Martz argues that whether corporate clientelism remains or more democratic organization develops Colombia is unlikely to shed its basic clientelistic impulses. Reforms will determine whether or not the state can construct a system in which the citizenry affects the course of national politics. The Politics of Clientelism provides a well-developed theory linking regime and governmental process to policy formulation and performance in Colombia. It will be engrossing reading for economists sociologists political scientists and other researchers interested in Latin America. GBP 42.99 1
