Abstract

Public regulation of many markets is often seen as a remedy to market inefficiency. However regulation responsibilities in many industries are handed to business organizations which offer better and up-to-date technical know-how and do not require taxpayers support. This paper discusses advantages and drawbacks of self-regulation basing on economic and juridical literature. Than factors that determine adopting self-regulation are subject to scrutiny. As the reputation and strength of industry organizations are indispensable to become credible partner to public administration, a civil society development is examined as a key factor influencing possible implementation of self-regulation. A hotel market is taken as a case study as both self-regulation and public regulation of hotel classification are adopted across various European countries. Countries where self-regulation concept has been applied show a higher average civil society index than other countries. Developing civil society seem to be the preliminary pace before embarking on with successful self-regulation.
