Contracts as instruments of public regulation

Peter Vincent-Jones examines how contemporary British governments use contracts to shape economic and social relationships. The book considers these arrangements from two angles: their effects on the parties entering them and their capacity to serve wider government regulatory objectives. Its subject sits at the intersection of public contract law and public administration, with attention to the broader role contracts can play in governing social and economic activity. The critical analysis makes the book a focused study of both the practical reach and the policy ambitions of public contracting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers studying public contract law or government regulation
  • Researchers in public administration and the use of contracts in social and economic policy
