The concept of compliance is central to government attempts to regulate economic activities. In this volume Hutter investigates the notion of compliance in two areas of vital importance to our everyday lives, namely occupational health and safety, and the environment. Hutter provides a snapshot view of the work of field-level inspectors and in doing so is able to provide insights into the broader factors which influence regulation and its definition at the everyday level, adding to our understanding of an ill-defined area of criminal law and social control.

Editorial Reviews
Review
this is a vintage Rolls-Royce of a book - a quality product in a traditional style that is not only bulky and impressive but likely to be an appreciating classic of its type. Christopher Hood, New Institutionalism and Organizational Theory, A Review Article.
`Sesitively framed, well-written and impressively throrough, this study is likely to be a standard work on regulatory compliance for some time to come.' Christopher Hood, New Institutionalism and Organizational Theory, A Review Article.
`Anyone who thinks regulatory 'compliance' is a clear-cut phenomenon, capable of being easily defined and measured, has been reading too many self-congratulatory reports by regulatory agencies and needs to read this book.' Christopher Hood, New Institutionalism and Organisational Theory: A Review Article.
