Éric Brousseau

Éric Brousseau is a Professor at Paris Dauphine University (PSL) and member of the CNRS research unit Dauphine Recherche en Management (DRM). He directs the Chair on Governance and Regulation of the Paris-Dauphine Foundation and coordinates the associated Club of Regulators, while collaborating with the European University Institute in Florence.

His research specializes in economic governance and market regulation, analyzing how actors' strategies shape institutional frameworks governing economic activities across national and transnational contexts. This encompasses historical and contemporary studies of regulatory dynamics, public-private regulatory interactions, and institutional evolution in digital markets and network industries.

Recent publications reveal a multidisciplinary trajectory spanning economic history (e.g., mercantilism studies), institutional economics (rule hierarchies, path dependency), and digital governance (platform economics, internet regulation). His work consistently bridges theoretical frameworks with empirical analyses of regulatory challenges in evolving economic landscapes.

• Honorary Member of the Institut Universitaire de France

As Director of Dauphine's Doctoral School, Brousseau oversees doctoral education and created the Master in Network Industries and Digital Economy (IREN) and Master in Telecommunications and Media Management. His research has secured funding from French public authorities, the European Commission, US National Science Foundation, United Nations, and OECD.

He founded the Institutional and Organizational Economics Academy (IOEA) and served as president of the Society for Institutional and Organizational Economics (2013-2014), establishing international networks for institutional economics research.
