abstract = {This paper treats the question to what extent globalization trends restrict a countryspecific
regulation policy in industrial countries. The empirical analysis makes use
of recently collected regulation indicators for four policy fields: financial market,
product markets, labour markets and trade. After a short discussion of the link between
globalization and deregulation and a descriptive view at the correlations, a
panel analysis for OECD countries for the period 1975 to 2001 is executed. The evidence
shows that globalization in the narrow sense of trade openness and capital
mobility has a rather limited impact as an immediate driver of deregulation. However,
in a wider sense globalization definitions also comprise the easier flow of
knowledge and information across borders resulting in more effective cross-border
learning processes.},
