Re‐Imagining Regulatory Governance

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper invites the readers to rethink regulatory governance by examining how trust‐based and rule‐based governance interact. To do this, it uses analytical narratives of three fictional polities: “Trustland”, “Regland”, and “Concordia”. Each polity represents a stylized model of governance: Trustland is anchored in trust‐based governance ...
