"Unternehmen sind immer häufiger an grenzüberschreitenden Normsetzungs- und Normdurchsetzungsprozessen beteiligt. Die beiden Autoren untersuchen Bedingungen für das Auftreten privatwirtschaftlicher Governance-Beiträge und gehen der Frage nach, unter welchen Voraussetzungen sie wünschbare Beiträge zu Global Governance leisten können. Dabei werden Legitimationsanforderungen und das Selbstlegitimierungspotential transnationaler privater Selbstregulierung betrachtet und Perspektiven für deren Einbettung in eine institutionelle Gesamtarchitektur erörtert."

"In new forms of public private or even private governance arrangements beyond the state the functional division of labor between the private and the public sector is blurred. Companies have taken on authoritative roles and regulatory functions in processes of norm setting and norm development. This corporate behavior is a new type of norm-entrepreneurship. In order to prevent corporate governance contributions from losing sight of the public interest, they have to meet contextualized normative criteria of legitimacy. Therefore, we argue that they must be embedded in an overarching institutional architecture of global governance in which public institutions can safeguard the conditions under which private self-regulation can make meaningful contributions to governance beyond the state."
