Abstract
A large consensus in the literature suggests that law has a diminishing capacity to react to innovation. After summarizing the commonalities between the law and technology literature and the literature on dynamic regulation in the analysis of the so-called pacing problem between regulation and innovation, the chapter evaluates proposed remedies for the pacing problem and distinguishes dynamic regulatory remedies.
