Rebuilding Regulatory Trust, but How? Lessons From European Financial Regulation
Over the past few decades, trust has emerged as a cornerstone of regulatory governance scholarship. Yet, despite a rise in regulatory crises and growing institutional contestation, we still know surprisingly little about how trust can be repaired once shattered. This article addresses this gap by developing a general analytical framework for regulatory trust repair, adapting insights from management scholarship to the context of regulation. The f…
Regulation and Trust: Systematizing a Complex Relationship
Despite growing interest in, and the increasing importance of, trust in regulatory governance and the regulatory state, we are still missing a systematic discussion of their interaction. This leads to conceptual ambiguities, disparate language for similar phenomena, and scholars talking past each other. This paper fosters clarity and systematization for a cumulative knowledge‐building trajectory. We propose a multi‐layered framework, which begins…

National de‐delegation in multi‐level settings: Independent regulatory agencies in Europe
National politicians in Europe have created independent regulatory agencies (IRAs) with significant powers over markets such as communications and energy. After delegation, they have engaged in institutional politicization of IRAs and undertaken numerous attempted or actual de‐delegations. Yet overall de‐delegation over the period 2000–2020 has been limited, as many de‐delegations have been abandoned, temporary or reversed, and also counterbalanc…
Reversing delegation? Politicization, de‐delegation, and non‐majoritarian institutions
Elected governments and states have delegated extensive powers to non‐majoritarian institutions (NMIs) such as independent central banks and regulatory agencies, courts, and international trade and investment organizations, which have become central actors in governance. But, far from having resolved the balance between political control and governing competence or removed certain issues from political debate, NMIs have faced challenges to their …
EU regulation between uniformity, differentiation, and experimentalism: Electricity and banking compared
How far and under what conditions may experimentalist governance be an efficient and legitimate means of responding to diversity among EU member states, in comparison to both conventional uniform regulation and differentiated integration? By comparing two major domains where the challenge of integrating national diversity has arisen prominently, electricity and banking, we find that under conditions of high interdependence and high uncertainty, d…
Experimentalist governance
This chapter discusses 'experimentalist governance', a notion that over the past 15 years has been attracting attention in both academic and policy debates. It begins by very briefly discussing two notions - directly-deliberative polyarchy and democratic experimentalism - that are largely equivalent to experimentalist governance but have slightly different emphases and have appeared earlier. It then offers a conceptual definition of experimentali…
Competition Policy in Action: Regulating Tech Markets with Hierarchy and Experimentalism
Although experimentalist governance – presented as a novel alternative to conventional hierarchical governance – has attracted attention over the past 15 years, we still know little about its real spread and scope conditions. Examining the application of competition policy to the digital sector, the article reveals that the European Competition Network and the procedures modernized in the early 2000s actually host a variety of governance processe…
Is experimentalist governance self‐limiting or self‐reinforcing? Strategic uncertainty and recursive rulemaking in European Union electricity regulation
Is experimentalist governance (XG) self‐limiting or self‐reinforcing by virtue of its relationship to strategic uncertainty as an essential scope condition? This article tackles this important but understudied question by elaborating a series of idealtypical pathways for the temporal evolution of XG in specific policy domains, ranging from reversion to hierarchical governance through endogenous reduction of strategic uncertainty at one extreme to…
Balancing experimentalist and hierarchical governance in European Union electricity and telecommunications regulation: A matter of degrees
While the widespread diffusion of experimentalism across sectors and polities is well documented, less is known about the extent of the shift to this non‐hierarchical form of governance, which continues to coexist with traditional hierarchical governance and involves more inclusive rulemaking and revision based on review of alternative implementation experiences. By comparing and process‐tracing electricity and telecommunications regulation in th…
