Summary: | "Today organized interests fight most of their major battles within coalitions. Whether joining forces to address tobacco legislation or proposed air safety regulations, Washington lobbyists with seemingly little in common are combining their clout to get results." "Kevin Hula examines why coalition strategies have emerged as a dominant lobbying technique, when lobbyists use them, and how these strategies affect their activities. He also shows how the communications revolution is changing interest group tactics. The single most detailed work available on the subject, Lobbying Together offers scholars and students alike a fresh and accessible look at this increasingly important factor in the policy process.
