Participation and Policy Making in the European Union

Bok av Helen Wallace
Who really participates in the European policy process? Do organized outsiders have a clear advantage in gaining access to decision-making? If so, with what consequences? This study, by a multinational team of experts, examines the interplay between organized interests, member governments, and the European institutions, and argues that emerging patterns of European governance are starting to produce some policy outcomes that are different from those generated in national settings.
