Djurtransporter i Europeiska Unionen-En analys av Eurogroup for Animals påverkan i EU

s beslutsprocess


Our thesis is a single-case study in which we try to answer the question: Why didn?t the lobbygroup Eurogroup for Animals get enough support for their demands in the latest regulation regarding transport of animals? As an example of their cooperation with their memberorganisations, we have chosen the Swedish organisation Djurens Rätt. Through interviews with key-persons involved in the process and with the use of Jeremy Richardson's theory regarding lobbying in the EU, we found that there were many different factors that effected Eurogroup for Animals chances to get an animal friendly legislation. For example by setting too ambitious demands Eurogroup for Animals wasn?t considered to be a serious actor during the legislation process. Bad institutional timing is another example that proved to have an negative impact on Eurogroup's result in this particular case. Our study shows that it takes more than a good understanding of how the EU works to be a successful lobbyorganisation.
