Overview
Focusing on the overall pattrerns of interaction berween government and interest groups, Wilson draws upon extensive interviews with leading campaigners and politicians to examine the structures and methods of group politics, the perspectives and attitudes of group leaders, and the place of interest groups in the broader pattern of French politics. He concludes that neither of the two major conceptualizations of interest group/government relations is adequate to explain group politics in France. Collier suggests that the French state is much more powerful than previously recognized by these or other models of interest-group politics.
