The Need for Improved Public Transparency in the Era of Due Diligence Regulations

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address environmental and human rights issues in global commodity supply chains, governments increasingly require information from companies on their sourcing, as part of due‐diligence regulations (DDRs). This shift towards accountability to the regulator rather than to the public calls into question the role left for public transparency ...

Chain Reactions: How Businesses Plan to Respond to the EU Deforestation Regulation in Brazil, the Congo Basin, and Europe

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2023 European Union Regulation on Deforestation‐free Products (EUDR) is a transnational regulation aimed at addressing forest loss along the value chains of forest‐risk commodities. Grounding our analysis in new institutional theory with distinct behavioral drivers explaining actor behavior, and using qualitative methods, we draw on the ...
