On behalf of Prof. Alberto Alemanno,
As the European Union is increasingly emerging as de facto global
regulator of all kinds of rules concerning the environment, human
health, and safety, risk regulation is becoming a new lens through which
to analyse the European integration process. Indeed, today the most
important and widespread form of EU regulation in the internal market is
concerned with the government of risk to individuals' health and safety.
The European Journal of Risk Regulation (EJRR) is a new international
journal that provides an innovative forum for informed and scholarly
discussion on how these risks are regulated across policy domains in
Europe and beyond. By focusing on institutional, procedural and
substantive aspects of EU risk regulation, the EJRR strikes a balance
between the interests of the practitioners, notably those increasingly
engaged in regulatory drafting and advice to the industry, and a more
theoretical focus, combining normative articles with timely
contributions on legislative and judicial developments, new literature
and relevant events. The EJRR understands itself as a truly
multi-disciplinary journal. While the central focus of the journal is
the European law regulating inter alia Chemicals (REACH), Nanomaterials,
Pharmaceuticals, Food and Feed, Cosmetics & Medical Devices, Pollution,
Climate Change, Industrial Accidents, Life-style risks anb Public Health
issues, discussion extends to other social sciences, such as inter alia regulation studies,political science, risk analysis, safety science and sociology.
CALL FOR PAPERS:
The EJRR invites submissions for the first two issues of the journal.
The editors are looking for papers that communicate new research,
business analysis and policy insights to an informed readership across
EU regulatory domains. The EJRR is expected to 'go life' in Spring 2010,
and we therefore ask that work be submitted no later than January 30,
2010 in order to be considered for issue 1. Submissions will be reviewed
on a rolling basis beginning December 10, 2009.
Please direct submissions and any questions about our Journal to:
