The Rise and Retreat of Consumer Regulation in the United States.
The development of consumer regulation in the United States in the 1970s was due to the economic context and the rise of «policy entrepreneurs» in Congress, able to draw public attention and transform it into legislative action. Organized consumer groups also played a significant role. By the late 1970s the Reagan administration relayed by Congress sought to restrain regulation, critized as being too aggressive by business, while the competitive position of the US economy was declining. At present, the lull in consumer protection has, to some extent, been filled by the States and the courts. But the fear of having to meet 50 different requirements has generated a new-found industry support for national legislation that would preempt State regulations. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
