Inclusion without influence? NGOs in European trade policy
Article Abstract:
An argument is presented that the nongovernmental organizations, which have diffuse costs and benefits from trade policies, do not dispose of resources with which they can threaten or enhance political actors' chances of re-election or re-appointment. The analysis of a survey indicates that although NGOs have gained access to policy makers, they have largely failed to shift policy outcomes in their favor.
