Expertise

I work on 'alternative review of government action', impact assessment, regulatory cooperation, private regulation and constitutional design, from a regulation perspective and a legal perspective.

Currently, I am a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, Center for the Study of aw and Society (spring-summer 2013).

Our departmental research programme 'Constitutional Dialogues' entails joint inquiries into the role of 'dialogue' in public law decision-making.
