Governing for Resilience in Vulnerable Places provides an overview and a critical analysis of the ways in which the concept ‘resilience’ has been addressed in social sciences research. In doing so, this edited book draws together state of the art research from a variety of disciplines (i.e. spatial planning, economic and cultural geography, environmental and political sciences, sociology and architecture) as well as cases and examples across different spatial and geographical contexts (e.g. urban slums in India; flood-prone communities in the UK; coastal Japan). The cases present and explore challenges and potentials of resilience-thinking for practitioners and academics. As such, ‘Governing for Resilience in Vulnerable Places’ aims to provide a scientifically robust overview and to generate some conceptual clarity for researchers, students as well as practitioners interested in the potential of resilience thinking as well as the application of resilience in practice.

With the Chinese government planning a comprehensive and detailed reform of regulatory law, the European experience is likely to contribute significantly. This timely book analyses comparative Chinese and EU regulatory reform from a Law and Economics perspective.

In this entry, which is part of the forthcoming Encyclopedia of Private International Law (edited by Jurgen Basedow, Franco Ferrari, Pedro de Miguel Asensio, & Giesela Ruhl, Edward Elgar, forthcoming 2017), I explore correlations between domestic regimes of private international law and World Trade Organization (WTO) law. Both sectors have traditionally been viewed as separate areas. Private international law (particularly choice of law) is viewed as part of a country’s national law. It is limited largely to private-party disputes and, hence, individual interests. WTO law, by contrast, is seen as a segment of public international law, an area to be kept strictly separate from national law. Private parties are neither directly protected nor endowed with individual rights. As can be shown, this impression of isolation is incorrect, primarily because private international law is no longer limited (if it ever was) to the resolution of private-party conflicts. It is the modern ‘regulatory function’ of private international law that may conflict with a state’s obligations under public international law. This becomes a concern with respect to WTO law.

Innovation underpins competitiveness, is crucial to addressing societal challenges, and its support has become a major public policy goal. But what really works in innovation policy, and why? This Handbook, compiled by leading experts in the field, is the first comprehensive guide to understanding the logic and effects of innovation polices. The Handbook develops a conceptualisation and typology of innovation policies, presents meta-evaluations for 16 key innovation policy instruments and analyses evidence on policy-mix. For each policy instrument, underlying rationales and examples are presented, along with a critical analysis of the available impact evidence. Providing access to primary sources of impact analysis, the book offers an insightful assessment of innovation policy practice and its evaluation.
