Is regulatory innovation fit for purpose? A case study of adaptive regulation for advanced biotherapeutics

The need to better balance the promotion of scientific and technological innovation with risk management for consumer protection has inspired several recent reforms attempting to make regulations more flexible and adaptive. The pharmaceutical sector has a long, established regulatory tradition, as well as a long history of controversies around how to balance incentives for needed therapeutic innovations and protecting patient safety. The emergence of disruptive biotechnologies has provided the occasion for regulatory innovation in this sector. This article investigates the regulation of advanced biotherapeutics in the European Union and shows that it presents several defining features of an adaptive regulation regime, notably institutionalized processes of planned adaptation that allow regulators to gather, generate, and mobilize new scientific and risk evidence about innovative products. However, our in-depth case analysis highlights that more attention needs to be paid to the consequences of the introduction of adaptive regulations, especially for critical stakeholders involved in this new regulatory ecosystem, the capacity and resource requirements placed on them to adapt, and the new tradeoffs they face. In addition, our analysis highlights a deficit in how we currently evaluate the performance and public value proposition of adaptive regulations vis-à-vis their stated goals and objectives.

IMF retrospective and prospective: A public goods viewpoint

The paper investigates changes in IMF activities using the analytical framework of international public goods. The IMF promotes international financial stability, whose outputs are joint products with varying degrees of publicness. In recent years, IMF loans (recipient-specific benefits) have assumed decreased importance, while the Fund’s technical assistance and monitoring activities have taken on greater importance. As a consequence, the club and purely public outputs (e.g., disseminating best practices) have grown as a share of IMF activities. Changes in the mix of IMF activities alter the mix of international public goods and, in so doing, change policy recommendations regarding the role of IMF. The future of IMF is also addressed, especially in light of increased private capital flows.

WTO《农产品协定》的适用缺陷及我国对策

尽管WTO《农产品协定》对农产品出口补贴进行了有效的规制,但仍存在着一定缺陷,包括起点负荷、滚动使用和农产品或产品组等漏洞,导致不少国家仍对关键农产品适用出口补贴。对于其他成员的农产品出补贴行为,我国除了在不违反《农产品协定》的情况下,通过国营贸易企业对关键农产品进行垄断经营外,也可根据国外农产品出口补贴对我国农产品影响的具体情况,采取多边和单边救济措施。     

论GATT1994第3条国民待遇原则中“同类产品”的认定——以日本酒税案、智利酒税案、韩国酒税案、欧共体石棉案为视角

同类产品的认定是正确实施国民待遇原则的前提。GATT边境税调整工作组报告提出了确定同类性的个案标准和四个具体因素,日本酒税案提出了手风琴理论。WTO争端解决机构通过若干判例表明,第3条第2款第1句的同类产品应从严解释,第2句的直接竞争或替代产品包括同类产品,第4款的同类产品应从宽解释。由此,同类产品的认定没有统一标准,WTO争端解决机构享有相当的自由裁量权,国民待遇原则正确适用的争议解决具有一定的不确定性。
