Book excerpt: This book investigates why European associations form interest coalitions, which strategies these coalitions pursue to influence the EU institutions, and how persistent they are over time. In this context, questions concerning the transparency of European decision-making are approached. The field of European energy policy serves as empirical background, providing a valuable insight into a little researched area of European politics.
