Abstract: | There are many different styles of regulation in the consumer policies in the U.S. and Europe. This article argues that governance is an important variable of consumer policy, but adds aspects of issue framing. The case studies of genetically modified organisms and tobacco control show that features of governance are not necessarily linked to distinctive styles of regulation, but they vary across policy fields. A mix of governance elements and framing opportunities for interest groups can explain output and new directions of consumer policy. |
