The panel's aim is to analyse the relation between interest groups and the courts and regulatory agencies in Europe. Interest groups can theoretically influence all branches of government. However, while studies on interest group activities as well as their influence has steadily increased over the last ten years, the interaction between interest groups/civil society/associations ... and the judiciary and agencies remains, with some exceptions, a relatively under-researched field in EU studies. This panels aims at bringing together a selection of papers that study this interaction from a comparative point of view (test cases, litigation strategies by companies, CJEU compared to the Supreme Court or international courts...). It welcomes more particularly papers that rely on systematic methods of data-collection (elite surveying, document analysis, registration data) and attempt to test hypotheses, as well as papers offering new research agendas.
