Opis

The concept of compliance is central to government attempts to regulate economic activities. In this volume Hutter investigates the notion of compliance in two areas of vital importance to our everyday lives, namely occupational health and safety, and the environment. Hutter provides a snapshot view of the work of field-level inspectors and in doing so is able to provide insights into the broader factors which influence regulation and its definition at the everyday level, adding to our understanding of an ill-defined area of criminal law and social control.

Recenzje

Anyone who thinks regulatory 'compliance' is a clear-cut phenomenon, capable of being easily defined and measured, has been reading too many self-congratulatory reports by regulatory agencies and needs to read this book.
