Competitive Interests: Competition and Compromise in American Interest Group Politics
ISBN: 9781589017795 / Angielski / Miękka / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Competitive Interests does more than simply challenge the long-held belief that a small set of interests control large domains of the public policy making landscape.

Thomas T. Holyoke offers a model of strategic lobbying that shows why some group lobbyists feel compelled to fight stronger, wealthier groups even when they know they will lose. Holyoke interviewed 83 lobbyists who... Competitive Interests does more than simply challenge the long-held belief that a small set of interests control large domains of the public... |

Interactive Governance: Advancing the Paradigm
ISBN: 9780199596751 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The authors argue that although the state may remain important for many aspects of governing, interactions between state and society represent an important, and perhaps increasingly important, dimension of governance. These interactions may be with social actors such as networks, with market actors or with other...
