The MSc Regulation is based in the LSE Law School and the Department
of Government and offers you the chance to study regulation within a
systematic framework.Regulatory growth and reform has been an international 'policy boom'
in recent years. Governments have increasingly used regulation in
preference to other policy instruments. Transnational regulation – often
involving a diversity of non-state actors – has become a defining
feature of the international economy. Regulation therefore plays a
central role in the contemporary understanding of law and public policy.
As a field of study, regulation requires a multidisciplinary approach.
Legal, political and economic issues are intertwined and each has to be
understood to make sense of the overall process.The programme takes a distinctive multidisciplinary approach, which
concentrates on institutional issues and behaviour in regulation –
regulatory bureaucracies, interest groups, legislators and courts – in
addition to the economic aspects of regulation. We aim to bring together
the contrasting North American and European perspectives on regulation,
and to juxtapose experience of regulatory practice with theoretical
ideas about how regulation works.
