Theme:
Private Standards in the Context of Global Governance (APL Seminar Series on Global Governance)
Abstract
Transnational
private
governance
has
arisen
in
various
areas
such
as
food
safety,
chemical
safety,
forest
protection,
and
labour
rights
monitoring,
-
in
some
of
them
governments
have
a
long-standing
and
continuing
commitment
to
regulation.
Why
do
private
initiatives
emerge
in
these
areas?
Do
private
standards
and
regulation
work
complementary
or
independently?
In
this
seminar,
the
cause
of
proliferation,
roles,
and
challenges
of
private
standards
will
be
discussed.
