Measuring multi-level regulatory governance: organizational proliferation, coordination and concentration

As regulation increasingly results from the interplay of a wide array of different actors operating at different levels, it has become crucial to focus on how these constellations of regulatory actors operate. Although this research field presents huge potential for theoretical development, we still...
