Description
Pressure Groups are an increasingly important feature of the political landscape and they are active on many levels, local, national or European. They reflect a diverse compass of interests from the well-known (the National Farmers' Union) to the less familiar (the Zip Fastener Association) and interact with a wide range of political players in different parts of the political system: parties, the media, government and parliament. They are involved at every stage of the political process, from raising issues and agenda setting to policy implementation and monitoring.Subjects covered include: *Classifying pressure groups*How pressure groups operate*Pressure group resources*Trends in pressure group activity*Protest politics and direct action*Pressure groups and the Scottish Parliament*Pressure groups and the European Union*The abolition of hunting with dogs*Pressure groups and democracyThis book provides an accessible guide to the role of Pressure Groups in our democracy, establishing clear definitions and analysing their role and performance. It includes the findings of recent research into the workings of British pressure groups in the European Union and of the ways in which lobbyists consult with the devolved legislatures in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
