Preferred term

regulatory state  

Definition

  • The notion of the regulatory state suggests that the role of the state in economy and society is shifting from positive intervention to arms-length regulation and arbitration, particularly in advanced industrial economies. The supposed rise of the regulatory state has thus both a policy and an institutional dimension. [Source: Encyclopedia of Governance; Regulatory State]
