Klappentext This book presents the concept of 'regulatory crisis', reframing practical and theoretical questions about how disasters and crises challenge regulators and regulation. Zusammenfassung Grounded in case studies of well-known disasters! this detailed analysis traces multiple sources of influence and narratives (including the media and interest groups) which shape the trajectory and impact of crises. The authors challenge currently influential ideas about 'regulatory failure'! 'risk society' and the process of learning from disasters. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
