Polycentric governance meets the new economy: The United States, the European Union and transnational regulation

Walzenbach, Gunter; Lawton, Thomas C.; McGuire, Steven

Abstract

The emerging global information economy is widely integrated due to technological innovation rather than to hierarchical forms of institutional organization. As a consequence, the almost universal availability of electronic networks across national borders does question basic conceptions of territorial sovereignty.
