Description
Boom Juridische Uitgevers Managing and Maintaining Compliance 2007 Edition by Henk Elffers, Peter Verboon, Wim Huisman
The compliance of citizens and companies towards societal rules is an issue of ongoing importance for policy makers and academics. Scientific research from a variety of academic fields has led to insights which are used by policy makers and enforcement organizations. Insights and practical implications are covered in this collection by addressing how modern society is riddled with laws and rules. The book examines how non-compliance with certain rules may well be an attractive option in some circumstances. Managing and Maintaining Compliance also looks at the role of enforcing agencies to investigate whether rules are complied with, and, when necessary, prosecute or sanction non-compliers. The papers in this collection were presented at the conference "Managing and Maintaining Compliance," held in Leiden, The Netherlands, April 2006.
