Abstract

The discussion of accountability in global regulation leads inevitably to considerations of responsive governance. This chapter positions the regulation of crisis to ordering in the context of global governance no longer dominated by terror-centred risk/security priorities or the human rights compromises that these have produced. The analysis of global governance commences with a consideration of the consequences of risk/security globalisation wherein regulation has required rights compromise. From here, it is argued that as the risk/security focus shifts from narrow interests in terrorism to more universal crises, regulation has the prospect of endorsing rather than sacrificing human rights concerns through strategies of collaborative sociability where previously the emphasis was on command and control intervention.
