But this is perhaps because of the broader fact that risk has itself become an autonomous legal object in economic Law only recently, especially because the risk has not the same status in Competition Law and in Regulation Law (I). The status is even opposed in this two branches of Law and risk is central in Regulation. Compliance Law being the prolongation of Regulation Law, it is also built on the concern of the risk and the internalization of it takes the shape of mapping in firms.  If we look at this closely, before the special laws called "Sapin 2" and "Vigilance" and beyond them, decisions of case law give a general scope to maps elaborated by operators, or increase their obligation to do it (II). In this, general positive Law offers points of support to Compliance Law, enforcing it in its tools.    -   Read the summaries of the other articles of the book     -

Articles in a legal collective publication

Anchor points of the risk mapping process in the legal system, in Frison-Roche, M.-A. (ed.), “Compliance Tools”

Full reference : Frison-Roche, M.-A.., Anchor points of the risk mapping process in the legal system, in Frison-Roche, M.-A. (ed.), Compliance Tools, serie "Régulations & Compliance", Journal of Regulation & Compliance and Bruylant, 2020, to be published.   Read a general presentation of the book in which the article is published   - Summary of the article Is the consideration by Law of the Risk Mapping mechanism so new? At first glance yes, and one might even be surprised at this novelty, since this rational anticipation of risks should have been recognized for a long time. But this is perhaps due to the more general fact that Risk itself has only recently become an autonomous legal object in Economic Law, in particular because Risk does not have at all the same position in Competition Law and in Regulation Law (I) .. Its position is even opposed in the both, Risk becoming central in Regulation Law. Compliance Law being the extension of Regulatory Law, it is also built on the "concern" of Risk and the internalization of this consideration in enterprises therefore takes the form of mapping. A closer look maybe not,even  before the specific  French laws, called "Sapin 2" and "Vigilance" and beyond them, case law decisions giving a general scope to maps drawn up by operators, or increasing the obligation that 'they have to do it (II). In this, general and precise technical Law offers points of support for Compliance Law, strengthening it in its tools.   Read the summaries of the other articles of the book   -
