Private Transnational Regulation: Constitutional Foundations and Governance Design
Project Summary
The project addresses key questions concerning the mix of public and private power in transnational governance which are raised by the emergence of transnational private regulatory regimes (TPRER). This project will evaluate the constitutional foundations, emergence, and dissolution of TPRER through the execution of case studies on financial markets regulation, corporate social responsibility and protection of fundamental rights, consumer protection, and standardization. The project, in cooperation with stakeholders, will try to produce guidelines on private regulation focusing on general principles, appropriate governance design, and impact assessment, in addition to monographs on the effects of these regimes on national and transnational legal orders, providing theoretical foundations for the policy recommendations.
