Berkeley Electronic Press is pleased to announce the following special issue of Business and Politics<http://www.bepress.com/bap>.

Private Regulation in the Global Economy

The articles in this special issue examine private regulation in the global economy from a variety of perspectives. The papers were first presented at an interdisciplinary workshop, held at Duke University in October 2009 to critically examine our current knowledge about private regulation of global markets and advance the research frontier through conceptual, theoretical, and empirical contributions. Many of the articles focus on previously little-known cases of private regulation with distributional implications and consequences for millions of participants in the global economy, others examine new aspects of familiar cases. Jointly, they illustrate and analyze the politics of transnational private regulation.

About this journal

Business and Politics<http://www.bepress.com/bap> publishes articles within the broad area of the interaction between firms and political actors. Two specific areas are of particular interest to the journal. The first concerns the use of non-market corporate strategy. The second involves efforts by policy makers to influence firm behavior through regulatory, legal, financial, and other government instruments. Recent articles concern the Chinese auto industry and the WTO, environmental regulation in Argentina, foreign investment and the oil curse, and lobbying and steel imports. The journal is edited by Vinod K. Aggarwal (UC Berkeley), a leading expert in trade policy and international negotiations. Authors include notable professors from Oxford, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Sloan School of Business at MIT.
