As a result, legal forums are increasingly treated as a good that is subject to the market mechanism. Individuals and corporations increasingly have free reign\u003cbr\u003eto choose which legal rules to apply to their company, their contract, their marriage, or their insolvency proceedings. States in turn grant these opportunities and respond to demand by competing with other suppliers of legal regimes. 'Regulatory competition' describes a dynamic in which states as\u003cbr\u003eproducers of legal rules compete for the favour of mobile consumers of their legal products. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book focuses on the philosophical underpinnings, problems, and consequences of such regulatory competition. It argues that there is a mismatch between regulatory competition as a policy approach and the beliefs and commitments that shape our thinking about law and the state. It concludes that\u003cbr\u003e'law markets' are potentially at odds with both our conception of the functions of legal rules and of key political ideals and principles such as democracy, state autonomy, and political authority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Johanna Stark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.70w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198839491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJohanna Stark, \u003cem\u003eMax Planck Institute for Tax Law and Public Finance, Senior Research Fellow\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJohanna Stark is a senior research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Tax Law and Public Finance in Munich, where her areas of research include legal and political philosophy, legal theory, German and European private law, and tax law. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40042125328499,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_f3e9e62e-da84-4ad8-ba16-6751a60ccd4b.jpg?v=1651014362","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/law-for-sale-a-philosophical-critique-of-regulatory-competition-9780198839491","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
