Launch of "Regulation & Governance" in March.


Blackwell Publishing (Malden, MA) will begin the publication of "Regulation & Governance" in March. The new quarterly journal is designed to serve as a platform for the study of regulation and governance by political scientists, lawyers, sociologists, historians, criminologists, psychologists, economists, regulators and regulatory experts throughout the world. An annual print/online subscription costs $86 for individuals and $380 for institutions.

Blackwell said the journal will provide a forum for original research, debate and refinement of relevant ideas and findings "in one of the most important fields of the social sciences." The mission of the journal is to advance discussions between various disciplines about regulation and governance, promote the development of new theoretical and empirical understanding, and serve the needs of practitioners for an academic reference.

Content will include coverage of the range of issues related to public policy and administration, corporate governance, boardroom performance and shareholder activism. Editorial will include information on shareholder value, best practices, management accountability, corporate transparency, legal and regulatory developments, expectations of international institutional investors, ownership rights in global markets, governance reform in emerging markets, regulatory reform, and ongoing government interventions.
