About

This Regulatory Policy and Politics course at King's College London provides an introduction to the regulatory process. As the study of regulation is interdisciplinary, we read and critically assess seminal texts in the fields of political science, law, economics, and sociology.

Overview

About the course

In the process, we cover the core theories of regulation, the key actors in the regulatory process, and the main modes of regulation and regulatory enforcement.

We utilise the theoretical foundations to analyse recent (real-world) cases of the introduction and change of modes of regulation and regulatory enforcement. In our case studies, we compare the adopted policy option to its alternatives, we analyse the role of the different actors involved in the process, and we reflect on the different drivers of the regulatory process.

The focus of the Regulatory Policy and Politics course at King's College London is generic, though the literature we read and the case we study are mainly concerned with regulation in the EU and OECD context. Furthermore, the module primarily deals with regulation at the national level, though our last session covers a primary example of international-level regulation; namely, EU regulation.

Programme Structure

Upon completion of this module, students will be able to:
  • Analyse the role of key actors in the regulatory process, the main modes of regulation and enforcement, and the key factors driving the process.
  • Compare and evaluate the core features of the different theories of regulation and the different modes of regulation and enforcement
  • Critically assess the strengths and weaknesses of the different theories of regulation and the different modes of regulation and enforcement.
  • Evaluate the relevance of the different approaches for understanding real-world cases of regulation and enforcement, and assess the factors that have driven real-world regulatory choices.
