Law And Governance In Postnational Europe Compliance Beyond The Nation-state

Arguing that legal rules can be implemented beyond national boundaries, this volume asks what accounts for compliance beyond the nation-state. Four contributors tackle this question by comparing compliance with regulations that have been formulated in a very similar way at different levels of governance. They demonstrate that nation states do not necessarily display the best compliance records and that a high degree of legalization, verification and sanctioning systems seem to be more important than the presence of an agent that is able to enforce rules.Joerges, Christian is the author of 'Law And Governance In Postnational Europe Compliance Beyond The Nation-state', published 2005 under ISBN 9780521841351 and ISBN 0521841356.
