In this thought-provoking book thirteen outstanding authorities from various
EU jurisdictions examine the legal basis of self-regulation and its function
in the process of European legal integration, with particular reference to
European private law. The authors offer in-depth analysis of self-regulation
in the context of current economic and political conditions in Europe, and
investigate the effects of self-regulation on such societal factors as the
following:

-
the European social dialogue;

the professions;

consumer protection;

the media; and

corporate social responsibility.

This book is among the first to raise these vital issues, and the first to
examine self-regulation in depth with reference to specific sectors. The
essays identify trends set in motion by self-regulation among major actors,
and the authors do not hesitate to offer insightful criticisms and
recommendations. For these reasons, this book will be of great value to
policymakers and business people, as well as to legal academics, for years to
come, as self-regulation assumes ever more salience in our economic and social
fabric.
