Improving the use of economic analysis in public policy and legislationBook | 1st edition 2011 | Europe | Andrea RendaThe use of economics in public policy, in the form of ex ante Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA), is strongly advocated by international organizations such as the OECD and the World Bank.

The European Composite Administration
Book | 1st edition 2011 | Europe | Oswald Jansen, Bettina Schöndorf-HauboldThis volume focuses on the concept of European Composite Administration (Europäischer Verwaltungsverbund). As Eberhard Schmidt-Aßmann explains in his contribution Verbund expresses a systematic notion which creates the necessary entity through interlinking with each other the two organisational principles – the principle of cooperation and the principle of hierarchy. This concept of Verbund also implies the notions of sovereignty, respect and the ability to undertake joint administrative action in the European Union. This German concept “Europäischer Verwaltungsverbund” is translated as European Composite Administration.
