{"product_id":"lobbying-success-in-the-european-union","title":"Lobbying Success in the European Union","description":"\u003cp\u003eHaving information is key for most political decisions – both for decision-makers and societal actors. This is especially crucial in democratic countries where external stakeholders are invited to participate in decision-making pro- cesses. Assuming that every actor that gets involved in decision-making processes has a particular lobbying goal, there is a \u003cbr\u003eheterogeneous set of actors competing against each other to provide information to the decision-makers. This competition leads some stakeholders to be more successful in achieving their goals than others. Frames, and the framing of information, play an important role in such lobbying success.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Daniel Rasch questions whether and, if so, how, information impacts lobbying success and shows how various actors perform in three instances of European decision-making. He does so by combining findings from a qualitative content analysis with the results of a cross-case analysis using the quantified qualitative data. The new dataset contains a representative sample of over 200 position papers from EU level and national consultations, press releases and evidence from national stakeholders in Germany, Sweden and the United Kingdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLobbying Success in the European Union\u003c\/em\u003e effectively bridges research on interest mediation and framing studies, and offers a new model for measuring stakeholders’ success. This new and pragmatic approach to study lobbying success using a traceable and easy to use instrument can be adapted to any policy analysis and any issue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54247973880152,"sku":"9780815381013","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780815381013.jpg?v=1777811456","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lobbying-success-in-the-european-union","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
