摘要：There is a global trend toward embedding personal credit systems and their scoring mechanisms within broader governance infrastructures. A prominent and controversial example is China's Social Credit System (SCS), which plays a central role in the country's data-driven financial and social governance. This study examines how Chinese citizens conceptualize credit and social credit and to what extent they engage with various personal credit systems, drawing on a large-scale survey (N = 5538). Ou...

摘要：This Article examines the globalization of competition policy through three waves. The first, led by the U.S. in the 1990s, embedded antitrust within the Washington Consensus, promoting worldwide diffusion of regimes, enforcement standards, and market-liberalization principles. The second, in the 2000s, advanced harmonization and convergence through international networks, capacity-building initiatives, and the promotion of best practices as global benchmarks. Since the mid-2010s, a third wave...

摘要：How can the design of regulatory regimes foster trust in those regimes? In food safety, finance, and data protection regulation, regulatory frameworks have been reformed to restore trust after regulatory failures. Using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis, this paper seeks to identify how key design choices-centralization of competencies in one versus multiple regulatory agencies, agency independence, mandated interactions, and rules perceived as appropriate-combine in fostering both tr...

摘要：This study examines the impact of tax-related formal institutions on corporate tax disclosures. Our theorizing, based on voluntary disclosure theory and institutional theory, highlights the cost-benefit analysis firms engage in to decide on corporate tax disclosures, where transparency enhances legitimacy but also entails risks like revealing proprietary information and increased political scrutiny. We argue that tax complexity and the maturity of cooperative compliance programs affect this co...

摘要：How do regulatory bodies ensure that including the beneficiaries of regulation in regulatory processes improves governance? In many regulatory arrangements, beneficiaries' fire alarm monitoring and reporting of targets' violations via complaint mechanisms activate regulatory bodies' enforcement role. This article theorizes how beneficiaries may misuse complaint mechanisms, undermine regulators' performance, and prompt regulators to adopt strategies within and beyond the complaint process to re...

摘要：For the law to function effectively in society, it must not only be enforced but also promote compliance, particularly in emotionally charged, polarized, or uncertain situations. This study explores the impact of legal sanction stringency and perceived sanction risk on the perceived legitimacy of and willingness to comply with mandatory vaccination laws in Czechia post-COVID-19. Using a 4 x 2 experimental design, we examined the effects of four sanction stringency levels and two levels of perc...

摘要：Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic, many countries worldwide have resorted to social distancing to maintain a certain physical distance to avoid direct contact between people. Despite the abundant literature on social distancing, how this mode of direct state intervention, which inevitably requires a lot of regulatory resources, was implemented has been a rare source of scientific inquiry. This paper attempts to fill this gap by presenting a case study that explores how regulatory resource deficits fa...

摘要：How do provisions for administrative sanctioning affect the implementation of loose legal norms? To streamline regulation, governments have increased their penal capacity by authorizing administrative sanctioning, and they have decentralized regulatory responsibility by loosening legal norms. A case study of Norway's animal welfare governance shows how using administrative sanctions to enforce loose legal norms led to unpredictable sanctioning and, thereby, subverted regulatees' trust in law e...

摘要：From the perspective of negotiated governance, this study examines how companies respond to regulatory measures that combine hard and soft elements, assigning them greater responsibility for addressing social problems. Focusing on the Swedish gambling market, the study analyzes gambling operators' interpretation of the legal concept of duty of care. While this duty obliges operators to protect gamblers from excessive gambling, what it entails in practice and how responsibilities are understood...
