商品詳細

Mazey and Richardson analyze the policy-making process in the EU by focusing on the role played by interest groups, both in the formulation and in the implementation of policy. The volume goes beyond looking soley at lobbying in the EU by addressing the wider issue of how policy emerges. Consequently, the authors examine the importance of linkages between different levels of policy-making areas, and the importance of EU institutions. Employing cross-sectoral and cross-national material, this book uses interest groups as a window on the whole public policy process in Europe.
