Description:... The Third Annual Conference of the Netherlands Institute for Law and Governance took place at Wageningen University on November 29, 2011. The conference was themed "Law & Governance - Beyond the Public-Private Law Divide?". A governance approach focuses on all institutions that pursue policy goals. During the conference, the main question discussed was what this approach means for legal research and legal practice. Is the distinction between public and private law still relevant? Can the governance approach enrich methodologies of legal research? Can this approach further new types of regulation, in which the market or civil society organizations have an important input and/or which require more technical expertise? This book examines both legal practice and legal research in order to learn from the examples of problems and approaches that fit the focus of governance. (Series: Governance & Law - Vol. 9)~
