Description

Book Synopsis
Many citizens, politicians, and political activists voice concern about the political influence of business in the European Union (EU). But do business interests really pull the strings in Brussels? Contrary to expectations, this book shows that business is no more influential than other interests in shaping contemporary EU policies.

Trade Review
The authors offer a compelling argument about what 'lobbying success' actually is. Organized interests' success should be judged relative to their own original preferences, not simply whether others collectively succeeded in changing or defending the status quo. They support this argument with innovative empirical analyses of interest group activity in Brussels. This will be an essential title for anybody interested in lobbying in the EU and beyond."" - Tim LaPira, James Madison University
