dc.description.abstractDiffusion of regulatory models involving commercialization or privatization, coupled with delegation of regulation to an independent agency, is supported to some extent by global legal regimes, particularly investment law. Taking the World Bank’s Handbook for Evaluating Infrastructure Regulatory Systems as a case study, the paper suggests that it might function rhetorically to advance the diffusion of a particular view of regulation, and a more concrete set of policies. As well it argues that the ubiquity of a vocabulary of governance, with which global administrative law is closely affiliated, both fosters and limits possibilities for those with different views about desirable regulatory reforms to intervene in policy debates.en
