摘要

本文对规制捕获的因果机制进行了系统的实证研究。它将过程追踪方法应用于万络(Vioxx)药物丑闻,该丑闻被广泛认为是抓捕的结果。在此过程中,本文对当前文献中缺乏的监管捕获提供了强有力的实证分析。该分析聚焦于英国药品监管机构在许可和监督一种药物方面所扮演的角色。在2004年退出市场之前,这种药物曾导致数十万人心脏病发作。我们开发并系统地操作捕获的三个因果机制,以研究对万络的监管决策的证据。通过对证据进行明确的理论和实证评估,我们发现通过旋转门、信息过载和共享文化框架捕获的程度是有限的。通过打开实证捕获研究的黑箱,本文强调了学者、媒体和政策制定者对监管捕获(错误)诊断的问题后果。

Mechanisms of regulatory capture: Testing claims of industry influence in the case of Vioxx
This paper presents a systematic empirical study of the causal mechanisms of regulatory capture. It applies process-tracing methods to the Vioxx drug scandal that was widely regarded to be a result of capture. In doing so, this paper provides a robust empirical analysis of regulatory capture lacking in the current literature. The analysis focuses on the role of the UK drug regulator in licensing and monitoring a drug that caused hundreds of thousands of heart attacks before it was taken off the market in 2004. We develop and systemically operationalize three causal mechanisms of capture to study the evidence on regulatory decision-making on Vioxx. Through explicit theoretical and empirical evaluation of the evidence, we show that the degree of capture through the revolving door, information overload and shared cultural frameworks was limited. By opening the black-box of empirical capture research, the paper highlights the problematic consequences of (mis-)diagnosis of regulatory capture by scholars, the media, and policymakers.

期刊介绍: Regulation & Governance serves as the leading platform for the study of regulation and governance by political scientists, lawyers, sociologists, historians, criminologists, psychologists, anthropologists, economists and others. Research on regulation and governance, once fragmented across various disciplines and subject areas, has emerged at the cutting edge of paradigmatic change in the social sciences. Through the peer-reviewed journal Regulation & Governance, we seek to advance discussions between various disciplines about regulation and governance, promote the development of new theoretical and empirical understanding, and serve the growing needs of practitioners for a useful academic reference.
