Renomierte internationale Redner werden Vorträge zu der Rolle von Nichtregierungsorganisationen innerhalb der EU-Politik halten.
Die Möglichkeit zur Anmeldung besteht bis zum 05.05.2013.
The conference will provide a forum for intense and structured exchange about ongoing research on the role of non-state actors in EU politics. In the congenial surroundings of Zeppelin University’s lakefront campus, it will bring together leading scholars, young researchers and practitioners to discuss work in progress and identify future research needs. A number of analytically distinct but empirically related dimensions of interest group involvement in the EU’s multi-level political system will be targeted:
- populations of interest groups in the EU and the member states
- professionalization of European civil society groups
- strategies for influencing political decision making
- strategic framing of policy issues
- effective influence on EU policy outcomes
- the intersection of interest groups and political parties
- political advocacy of European bureaucracies
- prospects and challenges for the effective regulation of European interest representation
Reflecting the different stages and dimensions of the influence production process in the EU, these topics deal with some of the most pressing questions today within the research fields of civil society, lobbying and public policy.
Registration deadline: 5th May 2013
