The economics and politics of regulation
批判性综述了监管的经济学与政治学文献，梳理二战后视角演变，强调知识变化与现实发展的互动，并探讨被忽视的主题如监管必然性、市场创造、分配问题、动态考量及监管政治，以增进理解。
This article provides a critical survey of the literature on the economics and politics of regulation. After some conceptual clarifications, the article surveys the evolution of perspectives on regulation during the post-Second World War period, emphasizing especially the interactions between intellectual changes and real world economic and political developments. It then looks at some themes that are neglected in the current literature--the inevitability of regulation, the need to create (and not simply regulate) markets, distributional issues, dynamic considerations, and the politics of regulation--and suggests that incorporating these themes more closely into the discussion will improve our understanding in this area.
