With over 30,000 lobbyists in town, Brussels is often called the European capital of lobbying. Despite this, little is known on how this political system works in practice. This book offers an unprecedented window into the everyday relationships between bureaucrats and interest representatives. Where the media only shows lobbyists as they meet MEPs and submit amendments, the book argues that the bulk of their work is done in close contact with EU bureaucrats – a form of ‘quiet politics’ developed by the business community, targeting officials with little public exposure. Based on official archives, the book first sets the historical picture for the emergence of a new layer of bureaucrats; fuelled by European and transatlantic capitalism, it altered the political façade of the business community to fulfil its need for legitimacy. Drawing from observations of internal meetings of the main lobbies operating in Brussels and interviews with lobbyists and Commission officials, the book then shows lobbyists at work. This text will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of the European Union, interest groups, and more broadly to political science and sociology.

Countless interest groups representing governments and civil societies try to lobby the European Union effectively in pursuit of the desired legislation, subsidies and more. This book describes the everyday practice of lobbying in Brussels, drawing on extensive research and the author's personal experience. The objective of these interest groups is to influence the EU decision-making, of which they see themselves as a stakeholder. To the existing representative bodies such as the Parliament and the Council, they add their practice of lobbying for a desired outcome by making their interests present or represented at the EU level. In a roundabout way, they contribute to the EU integration and also to its democracy, so long as the following conditions are fulfilled.

Countless interest groups representing governments and non-governmental bodies try to lobby the European Union effectively in pursuit of the desired legislation, subsidies and more. Many lobby groups simply do what they see fit. Others manage their affairs in the EU arena more professionally, and it is their home front and their playing field which are the focus of this book. Filled with real cases, examples of good practice, and special issues of EU lobbying, it presents a wealth of information and analysis. Like other political processes, EU lobbying has its limits, acknowledged here, alongside its contribution to democracy, both of which are discussed in this thought-provoking and reflective book.

The "civil service" of the European Union is little known. This book provides an accessible account of the administration of the EU and answers questions such as: What are the formal structures like?; How and why have they evolved?; What careers do EC officials have?; How are they selected, trained, promoted?; What sort of lifestyle and ethos do they develop?; What are the administration's internal dynamics?; What are the strengths and weaknesses of the system? Brussels Bureaucrats? looks at what they do from day to day, at the conflicts which arise and how they are tackled, and at relationships with those who provide political direction.

Recalling the work of Niccolò Machiavelli, leading researcher Rinus van Schendelen distills the practices of successful lobbyists down to three basic principles: ambition, study, and prudence. Paying close attention to the special issues implicit in EU lobbying, this book illuminates the practice, its opportunities and pitfalls, and even its contributions to democracy. This revised edition has been strengthened with several new cases, insights and trends, and takes into account the new Treaty of Lisbon.

Summary: Written by some of the leading experts on lobbying transparency in Europe, this collection provides an eye-opening insight into decision making within the European Union - and offers a valuable guide to fighting for greater transparency and accountability. "Bursting the Brussels bubble" is a valuable tool for anyone concerned with decision-making and democratic accountability within the European Union. It reveals how lobbyists from the world of big business have successfully embedded themselves inside the European Union's decision-making process, creating a political culture where, behind closed doors, the influence of business has become the norm.

More Machiavelli in Brussels is een uniek boek over belangengroepen en de invloed die zij uitoefenen op de overheid, met name de Europese Unie (EU). Door bevindingen samen te voegen van zowel academici als EU-medewerkers heeft Rinus van Schendelen een praktische handleiding samengesteld, van onschatbare waarde voor een succesvollere lobby binnen de EU. Van Schendelen verbindt in zijn boek twee thema's. Het eerste is Public Affairs Management (PA): de expertise die nodig is om autoriteiten en belanghebbenden effectief en efficiënt te beïnvloeden. Lobbyen speelt hierbij slechts een kleine rol. Traditionele beïnvloedingsmanieren zijn steeds meer achterhaald en worden vervangen door PA. Het tweede thema is de Europese Unie als politiek systeem. Dit systeem is zeer belangrijk door haar wetten en besluiten en door de geldstromen van en naar de EU. Dit trekt ontelbaar veel belangengroepen die opereren voor overheden en maatschappelijke organisaties. Hoe wordt invloed binnen de EU gewonnen of in ieder geval niet verloren? Aan de hand van Machiavelli's uitspraken benadrukt Van Schendelen zijn drie steekwoorden tot succes: ambitie, studie en voorzichtigheid. In deze vierde herziene editie presenteert de auteur nieuwe feiten en voorbeelden uit de praktijk, beperkingen en problemen van PA binnen de EU en de belangrijkste wijzigingen van PA binnen de EU. Rinus van Schendelen is hoogleraar Politicologie aan de Erasmus Universiteit in Rotterdam.
