Description: "This is a unique collection of papers bringing together those who work in and with EU business associations at the very highest level, with many of the leading academic authors on associations over the past two decades. It examines the factors that influence the effectiveness of EU business associations, the prospects for associations and their members to influence these, and the implications for EU governance. The papers originate from a conference funded under EU Research Framework Programme V, High Level Scientific Conferences initiative, held in Brussels in the autumn of 2000." "This book is designed to appeal to those who work in and with EU business associations, analysts of debates about interest groups, collective action and European integration, and those concerned with European governance."--BOOK JACKET.
