Industry Self-Regulation: An Economic, Organizational, and Political Analysis
探讨行业自我监管作为政府直接监管的替代或补充形式，基于经济、组织和政治分析提出关于其存在、运作和结果的命题，供未来研究参考。
Researchers generally have viewed nonmarket regulation of firm behavior as synonymous with direct regulation by the government. This paper highlights industry self-regulation as an alternative form of nonmarket regulation that, depending on the context, may supplement or complement direct regulation by the government. Further, on the basis of exploratory economic, organizational, and political analysis, it advances, for possible future research, propositions relating to the existence, operation, and out-come of industry self-regulation.
