Regulatory Governance
My work is an analysis of the regulatory state in the development. The study focuses on diffusion of privatization and regulatory authority around Europe. The contemporary regulatory state has developed as a result of political struggle that accompanied and increasingly globalized world and was in the beginning a response to the serious international economic crisis that emerged in the 1970s.Two major functions of governance are at stage: steering (leading, guiding) and rowing (enterprises, service provision). The regulatory state is said to be characterized by ‘steering without rowing’. The new order of regulatory capitalism represents a new division of labor between state and society and in particular between state and business: ‘Steering by State’ and ‘Rowing by Business’. However, in my opinion something is missing here. There are arguments for another division of functions: 1) Steering by State, 2) Rowing by Business and 3) Rowing by Self-regulatory Business-like state Agencies. The process of regulatory agencification has indeed exploded, and in this process regulation has become a distinct and salient function in the institutions of policy making. Regulatory governance, i.e. heavy involvement of self-regulatory unelected business-like state agencies in government, has become a universal concept. This conclusion might very well be documented clearly through empirical facts
