Abstract

The control regime grew step-by-step over time by adding components and combining them in specific ways. This chapter presents the first components as launched in the mid-1980s by the EU in programs called the New Approach and the Global Approach. In these programs, standards, certification and accreditation were presented as means of enabling the internal market. This was the first step in dismantling national borders and let the control regime replace national testing systems.
