Rules and Unruliness: Canadian Regulatory Democracy, Governance, Capitalism, and Welfarism
A critical examination of Canadian regulatory governance and politics over the past fifty years, Rules and Unruliness builds on the theory and practice of rule-making to show why government “unruliness” – the inability to form rules and implement structures for compliance – is endemic and increasing.
Analyzing regulatory politics and governance in Canada from the beginning of Pierre Trudeau’s era to Stephen Harper’s government, the authors – Bruce Doern, Michael Prince, and Richard Schultz – present a compelling argument that current regulation of the economy, business, and markets are no longer adequate to protect Canadians. They examine rules embedded in public spending programs and rules regarding political parties and parliamentary government.
