Why regulators assess risk differently: Regulatory style, business organization, and the varied practice of risk‐based food safety inspections across the EU
This article advances scholarship on comparative regulation by moving beyond the conventional focus on formal law and EU comitology to assess the extent of ‘practice convergence’ in the implementation of EU regulation. Drawing on 50 key informant interviews, a survey, and policy document analysis, we compare how regulators in England, Germany, France and the Netherlands have implemented EU requirements that food safety inspections be ‘risk‐based’…
Varieties of risk regulation in Europe: Coordination, Complementarity and Occupational Safety in Capitalist Welfare States
This article tests the extent to which the organization and stringency of occupational health and safety regulation complements the dominant mode of coordination in the political economy. While the UK explicitly sanctions risk-cost-benefit trade-offs, other European countries mandate ambitious safety goals. That contrast appears to reflect cleavages identified in the Varieties of Capitalism literature, which suggests worker protection regimes are…
Les risques de l'inspection. Les stratégies de défense des inspecteurs face aux changements du droit
Depuis les années 2000, trois corps d'inspection - les inspecteurs du travail, des installations classées pour la protection de l'environnement et de la sécurité sanitaire des aliments - ont connu des réformes importantes et une procéduralisation accrue de leur activité, dans le contexte d'un transfert vers les opérateurs économiques d'une obligation de sécurité qu'il leur appartient de traduire en mesures de sécurité. Nous discutons comment les …
Secrecy and security in transatlantic terrorism finance tracking
Access to and diffusion of information relating to the Terrorism Finance Tracking Programme (TFTP) has become a focal point for discussions about secrecy and democracy in the European Union. This paper analyses the dynamics of secrecy and publicity in the context of post-9/11 security programmes, in particular, the TFTP. Far from a binary between secrecy and transparency, the TFTP involves complex dynamics of knowledge, and strictly regulated inf…
Risk-based governance against national obstacles? Comparative dynamics of Europeanization in Dutch, French, and German flooding policies
Comparative studies have recently highlighted obstacles related to continental European countries' proclivity for adopting risk-based governance. However, so far, the interface between risk-based policy-making in the EU and potential policy change in reluctant member states has been underexplored. We compare flooding policies in the Netherlands with those in France and Germany to establish the extent to and conditions under which EU-level risk-ba…
Data Wars Beyond Surveillance: Opening the Black Box of Swift
This article examines the Terrorism Financing Tracking Programme (TFTP), or ‘Swift affair,’ as exemplary of what have been called ‘Data Wars’ in this special issue. In the TFTP, access to data about global financial circulations was offered as a means to govern uncertain security futures. The article endeavours to open the ‘black box’ of the Swift programme, by showing how the Swift data were handled, accessed and analysed. We use the social scie…
