Abstract

Self-regulation is a process in which regulatees imposes rules and procedures on themselves without being legally required to do so. To enable self-regulation, regulators need to be able to use the discretion given to them and engage in greater trust in regulatees. Various tools were offered to deal with the potential risk engaged in moving more power to regulatees, such as regulatory intermediaries, hybrid forms of self-regulation, and reliance on trust based regulatory approaches such as the reliance on pledges. Emerging literature has identified voluntary compliance and self-regulation as the optimal guiding principles of regulatory governance (Black 2001; Parker 2002; Bartle & Vass 2007; Barak‐Corren, & Kariv‐Teitelbaum 2021).). However, these concepts can be elusive, which leads to anecdotal and unsystematic research on these concepts. This panel seeks to establish a community of researchers studying voluntary compliance and self-regulation, to discuss its conceptual and empirical foundations, and identifying the most pressing research puzzles in this context. We wish to bring together scholars writing on various forms of self-regulation and private regulation, including sector-specific initiatives, multi-stakeholder initiatives, and hybrid models that combine self-regulation with government regulation and scholars writing about voluntary compliance. We aim to include papers on the lines of these four strands: 1. Different approaches to conceptualization of self-regulation and voluntary compliance. 2. Factors that contribute to is efficacy 3. Demonstration of self-regulation in different empirical contexts 4. The relationship between self-regulation and voluntary compliance.
