Abstract

This book aims at proposing an approach to local regulation that goes beyond the traditional set of instruments of descriptive and prescriptive regulatory analysis. If the slogan ‘All policies are local’ seems intentionally exaggerated, considering the absence of a local dimension in monetary and foreign policy, the need for a closer look at the local dimension of policies, and in particular of regulation, is the true reason for this handbook.
