| $1,178,000 | 2025 | John Templeton Foundation | Regulatory policy has never been more prominent and important in American governance. We will execute a series of projects in two general categories: (i) laying the groundwork for addressing emerging regulatory issues and (ii) improving public education and information. For the first category, the project will include the writing of papers and hosting of research roundtables to focus the best academic minds on timely applied emerging topics-alternatives to traditional regulation for rapidly evolving technologies and business models, and a positive vision for the realignment of longstanding legal doctrines that promise to disrupt executive agencies' entrenched procedures. The results will not only be published in academic journals, but shared in public forums aimed at policy officials, practitioners, and the media. We also will submit at least 20 substantive comments to improve regulatory proposals before they are finalized. The second category addresses the challenge that those responsible for making policy may not understand history or regulatory impacts. We will offer policy officials and practitioners education sessions to help them better understand regulatory process, agency decision-making, effective regulatory commenting, cost-benefit analysis, and relevant legal doctrines. We will update, enhance and expand access to our widely-cited repository of regulatory statistics which provide media, policy officials and academics insights into regulatory activity and trends. We also will digitize and create a web presence for the unique regulatory records, information, and data we have collected dating back to the Nixon administration, which will serve as valuable resources for researchers and practitioners. We also propose to update Regulation: A Primer, a short, accessible overview of federal regulation, covering theory, policy, analysis, and practice |
