Abstract

For those studying or working in the field of lobbying and public affairs, in the broad area that connects politics, law, business and communication, Europe represents a fascinating, varied, multi-faceted challenge. A global environment and a composite multi-level political arena make the European Union (EU) a crucial object of interest today, both for researchers and practitioners. This chapter presents the scope and the outline of the volume, describing the main features of the research, remarkable for the number of countries analysed (all the 28 EU Member States plus a chapter on central EU institutions), the depth of analysis for each country (with a presentation of each political system, its political actors, lobbying regulatory framework, professional development and overview of the industry of public affairs and lobbying) and the direct involvement of experts from each country, authoring the national chapters.

Nächstes Kapitel The Role of Lobbying in Modern Democracy: A Theoretical Framework
Fußnoten
1
In fact, the area close to the EU buildings in Belgium has come to be known as “Brusslington”, reflecting the pivotal role EU plays in allowing businesses and organisations to influence and shape legislation and regulation of trade and the environment worldwide.

The population of the EU (over 508 million people in 2015) is not homogenous and shows widely varying trends and different demographics, with a declining population in the East and some signs of growth in the West. The UK has the fastest population growth rate, followed by France and Germany amongst major countries, thus explaining some aspects of migration across the continent, although long-term trends have been exacerbated by instability and conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa most recently.
