Short and Toffel write on the practice of self-policing
In the economic policy vignette “Robust Enforcement Should Complement Voluntary Regulation” Jodi Short and Michael Toffel look closely at the relationship between self-regulatory practices and government enforcement in the context of a voluntary program at the EPA and finds that the two are complements, not substitutes.
The vignette is based on larger academic works by Short and Toffel.
