| 1 | Administrative Law and Market Regulation | RGBBE50210 |
| This new course offers students an introduction to administrative law and market regulation. It describes the evolution of administrative law in a number of countries and explains key concepts of administrative law (public body, administrative act/action, standing, judicial review of administrative decisions, deference, public contract). Moreover, this course reflects upon the shift from a traditional national model of public powers to a global or European model of intertwined public-private regulatory forces. In particular, the course introduces students to market regulation and explains how it affects the public/private divide and uses public and private law instruments and enforcement mechanisms to achieve its policy goals. Being comparative in essence, the course does not only discuss the developments within the European Union but also beyond. It also devotes attention to novel and more global phenomena such as the emergence of global administrative law and global private powers that exist parallel to traditional regulatory actors. Furthermore, the course combines the discussion of general and sector-specific aspects of the subject matter. This will allow students to apply the concepts learned in more general lectures to particular heavily regulated areas, such as consumer law and financial law and thus further develop their general knowledge of administrative law and market regulation. |

| 2 | Beleidsanalyse | RGBBE00905 |
Het openbaar bestuur heeft de opdracht maatschappelijke problemen aan te pakken in naam van en ten gunste van de leden van de samenleving. Denk bijvoorbeeld aan armoede, integratie van nieuwkomers, alcoholmisbruik, allerlei vormen van criminaliteit, gebrek aan betaalbare woningen voor starters en vergrijzing. Daartoe zijn tal van organisaties in het leven geroepen, die de problemen in kaart moeten brengen, oplossingen moet bedenken en beslissingen van gezagsdragers ten uitvoer moeten brengen, dan wel burgers moet ondersteunen bij het oplossen van die problemen. De stroom van ideeën, problemen, oplossingen, besluiten, uitvoerende handelingen en effecten wordt wel aangeduid als het beleidsproces. In dat beleidsproces worden maatschappelijke vraagstukken omgezet in beleid en dat beleid is vervolgens uitgangspunt voor pogingen om de problemen te verminderen of op te lossen.
Het vak beleidsanalyse is een inleiding in de analyse van (overheids-)beleid en de processen rond beleid: Hoe gaat het formuleren en kiezen van vraagstukken, het bedenken van oplossingen, het beslissen over de te kiezen oplossing, de uitvoering van gekozen oplossingen en de beoordeling van de gevolgen daarvan in zijn werk?
Werkwijze: In de hoorcolleges worden de kernbegrippen en -theorieën behandeld. In de werkcolleges en door het maken van opdrachten maakt de student kennis met enkele analytische methoden en oefent in de toepassing daarvan. |

| 7 | Organisation and Society | SOBA204A |
Since the beginning of the 20th century, the number of organizations has grown exponentially. This holds for all types of organizations, ranging from for-profit enterprises, non-profit associations, public agencies, to non-governmental entities. These corporate actors meanwhile are key agents in any modern society. For example, the top 200 corporations control more than a quarter of the world´s economic activity. Of the 100 largest ´economies´ in the world, more than 50 are multinational firms. Wal-Mart´s corporate revenues exceed the GDP of Sweden or Austria, and those of General Motors equal the GDP of Turkey. Individuals continuously have to deal with organizations: citizens interact with state authorities, consumers with enterprises, employees with employers. Organizations not only affect all areas of social, political, and economic life, but also have a huge impact on the desires, beliefs, and opportunities of individuals, including their health and their social relations. Consequently, any analysis of modern societies – the origin and solution of its social problems ranging from the obesity epidemic to failed states, as well as its successes in creating welfare through innovation – will remain incomplete unless it considers the role that corporate actors play. The main objective of the course Organization and Society is to provide a insight into the role that corporate actors play in society. Theories of organizations as sites and drivers of social action will form the analytical tool to achieve this objective.
The course will focus on the role of organizations as
I) Equalizers and stratifiers, discussing how organizations as corporate actors reproduce or challenge social inequality;
II) Standardizers and monuments, discussing which role organizations play in the persistence of traditions, habits, values and norms in society;
III) Movers and shakers, discussing ways with which organizations contribute to social and political change in society, as well as how they socialize and mobilize individuals;
IV) Networks and wirings, discussing how organizations contribute to the spread of innovation, transmission of new ideas, and how they connect or separate different groups in society. |
