Abstract

As an answer to the financial crisis, most actors call for more regulation without questioning the standardsetting process, notably from a political perspective. A comparative analysis of this process for three bodies of standards – IAS-IFRS, Basel I and II agreements and codes of corporate governance – points to a phenomenon described by Habermas as "the colonization of life-world by the technical sphere". After an analysis of the mechanisms of the colonization process, the paper explores possible ways to emancipation.
