Abstract: | Using the concept of postmodern politics, this study provides insights into how alternative regulation is challenging consumer policy. Especially, explored are two alternative regulatory cases: trust marks and consumer-generated information systems which both exemplify alternative regulation of electronic commerce. Based on the analysis, it is suggested that governmental consumer policy cannot imitate the alternative regulatory solutions etc. |
