Lobbying Government / Charles Miller
Titre : Lobbying Government : Understanding and Influencing the Corridors of Power Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Charles Miller, Auteur Editeur : Londres : Basil Blackwell Année de publication : 1987 Importance : 263 p Note générale : 04.02 MIL Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Lobbying Tags : Lobbying Gouvernements Index. décimale : 04.02 Entreprises Résumé : This work shatters many of the traditional maxims of lobbying, and provides an insight into the techniques of today's professional consultants. While government excuses amateurism by individuals, it expects businesses, industry, and special groups to deal with it professionally and effectively. Charles Miller, a leading public policy consultant, reveals where the real power in government lies, and how decisions are made. His book describes: the functions, workload and influence of ministers, MPs, Peers and officials; explains how outsiders can obtain early warning of policy planning; and advises on the techniques of getting through to government and putting a case to it.

Titre : Le lobby automobile européen : Analyse critique de l'influence de l'industrie automobile Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Hendrik Sander, Auteur ; Tobias Haas, Auteur Editeur : Rosa Luxemburg Foundation Année de publication : August 2019 Importance : 33 p Note générale : 04.02.HAA Langues : Anglais (eng) Français (fre) Catégories : Lobbying
Industrie automobileTags : Industrie automobile Europe UE Lobbying Index. décimale : 04.02 Entreprises Résumé : The story of the European Union (EU) is often told as a tale of peace and economic prosperity. However, it can also be framed in terms of rapid growth in the transport sector, which is firmly in the grip of ‘fossil capitalism’. The invention at the heart of this mobility model, which is causing widespread environmental destruction, is the internal combustion engine (Candeias et al. 2011; Balsmeyer/Knierim 2018; Haas 2018).
A glance at greenhouse gas balances makes this clear, as the transport sector was responsible for roughly 25% of EU-wide emissions in 2015. Although carmakers pledged to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions back in 1998, their voluntary commitment has had no effect on emissions. Consequently, the EU decided to impose a binding fleet target of 95 grams of CO2 per kilometre by 2021. In late 2018, the EU agreed that emissions from new cars must fall by an average of 37.5% by 2030. This was a notable success for environmentalists. However, the decisions taken are still way behind the 2015 Paris climate agreement to restrict global warming to 1.5° Celsius.
Not only is growing traffic heating up the Earth’s atmosphere, but the fine particulate matter and nitrogen oxide emitted by internal combustion engines is severely damaging human health. The diesel scandal showed that car companies manipulated the software in diesel vehicles to ensure that in laboratory tests their particulate and nitrogen emissions were a fraction of the levels found in actual road traffic. Whereas courts in the United States have made Volkswagen in particular pay out billions of dollars in compensation, so far politicians in the EU have handled the automotive industry with kid gloves.
Cars are continuing to emit huge quantities of toxic pollutants, and policymakers are taking no effective steps to stop them, largely because of carmakers’ economic clout and powerful political lobbying. Volkswagen and other automotive manufacturers are among the most powerful businesses in the European Union.
For decades now, they have maintained very close links with the EU institutions, exerting substantial influence on their policy. So far, carmakers have successfully blocked effective climate-related and environmental protective measures in the European transport sector.
However, they risk missing a major turning point. For years now, the importance of alternative forms of propulsion, like the batteries used by electric vehicles, new mobility services such as car sharing and the interconnection of various modes of transport has been growing. Today, even autonomous cars are being tested (PwC 2017-2018; Daum 2018). Companies like Tesla, Apple, Google and China’s BYD are pioneers in taking these developments forward. And the long-established car companies are now also pumping billions of euros into new technologies. At the same time, they are trying to defend their traditional business model, based on the internal combustion engine, for as long as possible – so far relatively successfully.
Regardless of whether the big carmakers succeed in leveraging their lobbying power to perpetuate the status quo in their industry or whether we end up seeing large numbers of driverless electric cars on our roads in the not-too-distant future, neither scenario will meet the need for a socio-environmental transport revolution.
This would require the replacement of the car by public transport, traffic avoidance measures and, last but not least, the transformation of residential areas and time regimes (Balsmeyer/Knierim 2018; MISEREOR/Brot für die Welt/Powershift 2018; Haas 2018). How can leftist political actors help to enforce ambitious limit values and hasten the demise of the internal combustion engine? Also, how can they prevent the transport revolution from being limited to smart and electric cars? The first prerequisite for achieving these goals is to analyse the huge lobbying power of automotive capital in the EU and devise strategies for breaking it apart.En ligne : https://www.rosalux.eu/publications/the-european-car-lobby/?L=930 Format de la ressource électronique : https://www.rosalux.eu/fileadmin/user_upload/Autolobby-FR-WEB.pdf Le lobby automobile européen : Analyse critique de l'influence de l'industrie automobile [texte imprimé] / Hendrik Sander, Auteur ; Tobias Haas, Auteur . - [S.l.] : Rosa Luxemburg Foundation, August 2019 . - 33 p.

Titre : The fire power of the financial lobby : A survey of the size of the financial lobby at the EU level Type de document : document électronique Editeur : Brussels : Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) Année de publication : April 2014 Importance : 24 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Europe
LobbyingTags : Finance international Lobbying UE Résumé : The enormous influence and destructive power of financial markets became apparent with the global economic collapse of 2008 which fuelled a financial crisis from which Europe has yet to recover. These events revealed the dire need for stronger rules on financial markets. But reform has proved difficult, not least due to successful campaigns waged by the financial lobby in the European Union: its “fire power” in resisting reforms it dislikes has been all too evident with issues such as banking regulation, derivatives, credit rating agencies, accountting rules, and many more.
Despite this manifest presence of “the financial lobby”, until now there has been no comprehensive survey of its size and power in the EU. This report is intended to fill that void.
The findings are stunning. In total the financial industry spends more than €120 million per year on lobbying in Brussels and employs more than 1700 lobbyists. The financial industry lobbied the post-crisis EU regulation via over 700 organisations and outnumbered civil-society organisations and trade unions by a factor of more than seven, with an even stronger dominance when numbers of staff and lobbying expenses are taken into account. In sum the financial lobby is massively outspending other (public) interests in terms of EU lobbying, by a factor of more than 30.En ligne : http://corporateeurope.org/financial-lobby/2014/04/fire-power-financial-lobby The fire power of the financial lobby : A survey of the size of the financial lobby at the EU level [document électronique] . - Brussels : Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO), April 2014 . - 24 p.
