摘要：The European Union's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) obliges the importers and users of seven agricultural commodities to achieve supply chain traceability and prevent deforestation-linked products from entering the EU market. This paper investigates how companies and producing countries in the coffee sector prepared for EUDR compliance by analyzing 61 semi-structured expert interviews and 25 sectoral meetings. It draws on socio-legal theorization on compliance construction and Global Value Ch...

摘要：Vocational education plays a vital role in fostering green skills that are central for achieving climate goals, sustaining economic competitiveness, and promoting social inclusion. Expectations are especially high for collective vocational education systems, in which both employers and the state are deeply involved in governance and funding. However, little is known about the extent to which collective systems have adapted to the skill demands of a green economy. Using Denmark as a case, this ...

摘要：This paper focuses on climate coalitions and commitments in the Global South by comparing the cases of two Latin American countries, Chile and Mexico. Chile, once a laggard, emerged as a regional leader in climate policy in the early 2020s, while Mexico, a pioneer until the early 2010s, experienced a backlash and retreated. How can we make sense of these diverging trajectories? How and why do climate commitments emerge? This paper argues that robust commitments are only possible when driven by...

摘要：Despite decades of awareness, societies have failed to adequately respond to climate change, as evidenced by rising CO2 emissions and the continued dominance of fossil fuels in global energy consumption. This failure underscores the structural constraints of capitalist modernity, where economic and political incentives, as well as consumer behaviors, obstruct effective climate action. Beyond the challenge of mitigation, climate change raises pressing questions about its social and political co...

摘要：Financial asset disclosure laws are widely implemented to combat conflicts of interest among policymakers, yet their economic impact remains poorly understood. This study provides the first comprehensive analysis of how these transparency measures affect macroeconomic outcomes across the 50 US states. We theorize that these disclosure and recusal laws could have divergent impacts on macroeconomic performance: they might enhance economic outcomes by curtailing the exploitation of political conn...

摘要：This study investigates whether the consolidation of corporate compliance in Brazil after Law No. 12.846/2013 resulted in substantial gains in effectiveness or reinforced predominantly symbolic compliance patterns. The research uses administrative data from the National Registry of Substantiated Complaints between 2009 and 2024 and applies a quasi-experimental strategy composed of interrupted time series, logistic regression with clustered errors, and fixed-effects models. The results show no ...

摘要：Governments specialize their work by dividing tasks among organizational units. Because specialization creates a demand for coordination among tasks that are interdependent, governments are also expected to provide more coordination when specialization is higher. Although this challenge is pertinent in local service delivery, it is rarely studied systematically. This article examines whether the extent of local governments' coordination practices relates to their level of specialization, focus...

摘要：Cloud infrastructures form the backbone of our contemporary (digital) production environment. Despite their centrality, legal and scholarly practice have not been treating cloud infrastructures as single objects of/for study. In other words, we have laws for regulating services and products that flow from (within) cloud infrastructures, but we have yet to grapple with their operators' ability to: (1) render things administratively calculable and legible; and (2) to dictate the global tempo of ...

摘要：Despite a growing awareness of the interrelation of environmental and social sustainability issues and the need to tackle them in integrated ways, few efforts have been made to develop an analytical framework of eco-social policy integration. In particular, a theoretical link to the broader social science debate on policy integration is missing. This paper aims to contribute to closing this gap by suggesting an analytical framework for a processual understanding of eco-social policy integratio...

摘要：This article argues that if the aspiration is to enhance regulatory and governance responses to white-collar and corporate crimes, consideration of the organization of these offending behaviors must be central to the scholarly, practice, and policy discussion. Regulation and governance scholarship has thrived as a field of study in its contributions to the theories and practices of regulation (and regulators) but has backgrounded the dynamics of how regulatees organize their rule-breaking beha...
