The European Union as a Global Regulator?

This book aims to move beyond establishing that the EU influences global regulation towards a focus on the EU's active efforts, both bilateral and multilateral, to shape regulations beyond its borders. It was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public Policy.
