It\nexamines the positive and negative impact that such networks of civil society\nactors – named “interlocutory coalitions” – may have on the convergence of\nprinciples of administrative governance across the European legal system and\nother supranational legal systems. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe\nbook takes two main controversial aspects into account: the first relates to\nthe convergence between administrative rules pertaining to different\nsupranational regulatory systems. Traditionally, the spread of methods of\nadministrative governance has been depicted primarily against the background of\nthe interactions between the domestic and the supranational arena, both from a\ntop-down and bottom-up perspective. However, the exploration of interactions\noccurring at the supranational level between legal regimes is still not\ngrounded on adequate empirical evidence. The second controversial aspect\nconsidered in this book consists of the role of civil society actors operating\nat the supranational level. In its discussion of the first aspect, the book\nfocuses on the relations between the European administrative law and the\nadministrative principles of law pertaining to other supranational regulatory\nregimes and regulators, including the World Bank, the International Monetary\nFund, the World Trade Organization, the United Nations, the Organization for\nEconomic Cooperation and Development, the Asian Development Bank, and the\nCouncil of Europe. The examination of the second aspect involves the\nexploration of the still little examined, but crucial, role of civil society\norganised networks in shaping global administrative law. These “interlocutory\ncoalitions” include NGOs, think tanks, foundations, universities, and\noccasionally activists with no formal connections to civil society organisations.\nThe book describes such interlocutory coalitions as drivers of harmonized\nprinciples of participatory democracy at the European and global levels.\nHowever, interlocutory coalitions show a number of tensions (e.g. the\ngovernability of coalitions, the competition among them) that may hamper the impact\nthey have on the reconfiguration of individuals’ rights, entitlements and\nresponsibilities in the global arena. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-04-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319288734\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-28875-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 192\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45383304642700,"sku":"9783319288734","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319288734.jpg?v=1775830499","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319288734","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
