A very topical expression of the internationalization of markets is the drive to create a single European market in the 1990s. As this study demonstrates, organized interests are playing a vital role in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of understanding this process lies a recognition of two factors. Firstly, that interest associations are but one amongst a vast set of mechanisms of governance. Secondly, that interest associatons are themselves diverse in levels, domains, territories and the size of their opertions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe aim of this study is not to propose the existence of a kind of 'Euro-corporatism' but to explain the conditions under which certain forms of associability and interest intermediation will emerge, and to examine the impact of such forms upon transnational integration of markets in Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book contains studies of key sectors, particularly in high technology, of business and labour organizatons, and also reviews the importance of size and territoriality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnyone with an interest in the development of the European market, government\/\/industry relations, the politics of interest groups and organizations, and neo-corporatism will find this valuable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAGE Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47021320208624,"sku":"9780803987012","price":164.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780803987012_p0.gif?v=1763729186","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780803987012","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
