In private-public regulatory structures, decisions are made collectively, with each side possessing consultative rights at the very minimum. Such structures are often amalgams of purely private law relationships and public law administrative bodies. Discussed today in terms of “governance” and “regulated self-regulation,” their origins go back to the 19th century. This volume presents their history and opens further research perspectives.
Studies of early modern scholasticism are experiencing a boom today.

Both beginners and experts will find the tools in this volume for conducting independent research on the sources and cross-disciplinary insight regarding the state of research.
