8 I have previously explored such patterns of engagement across jurisdictional lines, under the rubric of “intersys-temic governance.” in such circumstances, I suggest, we may find
a regulatory regime characterized by increased interaction, of a more recurrent nature, and by a close intermingling of regulatory conflict and cooperation. Ultimately, rather than increased regulatory coordination supporting each [jurisdiction’s] pursuit of its own [goals], we may see something akin to joint, or intertwined, regulation of relevant individuals, institutions, or subject-matter. in such regimes, discrete sets of regulatory rules may collapse into a collective whole.
Ahdieh, supra note 3, at 865 (internal citations omitted). Such regimes exhibit a distinct set of institutional characteristics, including (1) a heightened embrace of complexity, as compared to a single-minded emphasis on clarity; (2) a potential for the operational interdependence of regulatory institutions across jurisdictional lines, and (3) a central role for persuasion, rather than coercion, in determining the efficacy of relevant law and regulation. See Ahdieh, Robert B. From Federalism to Intersystemic Governance: The Changing Nature of Modern Jurisdiction, 57 Emory L. J. 1 (2007)Google Scholar. Further, they offer a counterpoint to conventional normative critiques of jurisdictional overlap and regulatory complexity, by exhibiting a heightened capacity to overcome regulatory inertia, to foster innovation, and to facilitate salutary integration. See Ahdieh, supra note 3, at 879-96.
