There is a general agreement, however, that the member states, especially smaller ones, have to engage actively in policy-making in order to promote their particular interest. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cross-policy comparison of the behaviour of Czech Republic’s representatives in the Council and the methods they use to influence the decision-making applies categorisation from lobbying literature to analyse the behaviour of the member state’s representatives and contributes to two strands of scholarship on European Union politics - decision-making in the EU and Europeanization. The book maps the methods of interest promotion that can be used by a member state and analyses the differences in interest promotion across external policy areas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45541788123374,"sku":"9781032179285","price":67.19,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/promoting-national-priorities-in-eu-foreign-policy","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
