摘要

欧洲联盟(欧盟)最近推出了《森林砍伐条例》,以弥补全球森林和农产品供应链可持续性和合法性方面的监管空白。我们通过借鉴问责学术和制度主义监管理论来分析这种监管政策的变化。我们的研究结果表明,该法规旨在通过主要以国家为基础的商品供应链硬监管来增强企业问责机制,从而降低市场激励和私人监管的作用。研究发现,这一政策变化是战略政策导向的学习结果,这些学习来自现有软市场工具、自愿贸易协定的问责失败,以及在政治有利的背景下纠正市场的欧盟木材合法性贸易规则的经验。在新的欧盟贸易规则中,将新的森林风险商品供应链问责制规范制度化,将在设计上加强外国公司对负面社会环境外部性的问责。然而,事实上的强化将取决于最终的法规设计、验收、遵从性、实现、执行改进和避免泄漏影响。

Hardening corporate accountability in commodity supply chains under the European Union Deforestation Regulation
The European Union (EU) has recently introduced the Deforestation Regulation to close regulatory gaps in the sustainability and legality of global forest and agricultural commodity supply chains. We analyze this regulatory policy change by drawing on accountability scholarship and institutionalist theories of regulation. Our results show that the Regulation aims to enhance corporate accountability mechanisms through mostly state-based hard regulation of commodity supply chains, reducing the role of market incentives and private regulation. This policy change is found to be the result of strategic policy-oriented learning from perceived accountability failures of existing soft market-based instruments, voluntary trade agreements, and experience with market-correcting EU timber legality trade rules in a politically favorable context. The institutionalization of new forest-risk commodity supply chain accountability norms in new EU trade rules would, by design, harden foreign corporate accountability for negative socio-environmental externalities. However, the de-facto hardening will depend on the final regulatory design, acceptance, compliance, implementation, enforcement improvements, and avoidance of leakage effects.

期刊介绍: Regulation & Governance serves as the leading platform for the study of regulation and governance by political scientists, lawyers, sociologists, historians, criminologists, psychologists, anthropologists, economists and others. Research on regulation and governance, once fragmented across various disciplines and subject areas, has emerged at the cutting edge of paradigmatic change in the social sciences. Through the peer-reviewed journal Regulation & Governance, we seek to advance discussions between various disciplines about regulation and governance, promote the development of new theoretical and empirical understanding, and serve the growing needs of practitioners for a useful academic reference.
