Regulation, like any act of governance, is a product of dreams and speech. This collection of essays brings together texts that were first spoken at the “International Brainstorm on the Future of the Regulatory State” on two very cold days in Toronto in December 2004.
This event, organized and funded by the Institute of Public Administration of Canada, was given a particular “brainstorming” format for two reasons. First, it underscored the growing impact and importance of regulation. Secondly, it reminded the participants that such social and political phenomena are always rooted in some sort of discourse and debate: they are moulded by the ways in which we think and talk about them.
