Abstract

In this chapter, I revisit the research question. I discuss the empirical and theoretical approach of the book. I conclude that interest group activities can be classified into equivalence classes. The choice of strategies can be explained by the distance to the constraining political actor (private communication) or the expected policy outcome (public communication). These effects are still valid when controlling for group type, which has been one of the main explanatory factors for strategy choice. I demonstrate that it is necessary to think beyond group type.
