Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Pennsylvania State University, 2006.

At the dawn of the 21st century the US and the EU combined dominate the global system. The policies emanating from these two spheres have global impacts; they set global standards, they influence global markets, and determine global politics. Policymaking in the US and EU capitals, therefore, becomes a critical process to understand. Lobbyists, or advocates, constitute a fundamental component of the policymaking process in both Washington and Brussels. Through organized interests critical information is introduced into the policy development process and the preferences of citizens, institutions, associations, NGOs, governments and corporations, among others, are incorporated into political debates. Lobbying on both sides of the Atlantic is unquestionably significant in this era of increased globalization since their activities have ramifications beyond their borders. This dissertation provides the first large scale quantitative study of US and EU lobbying. It argues that to understanding lobbying in any democratic system we must: first, recognize that advocacy is a process comprised of numerous stages, and second, that lobbying decisions at each of those stages are determined by a confluence of contextual factors including institutional, issue and interest group characteristics. This theory is tested empirically on data based on 149 in-depth interviews with advocates in Washington D.C. and Brussels, Belgium who were active across a random sample of 47 policy issues. The findings support the theory; factors at all three levels are important determinants of advocacy decisions regarding lobbying approaches, targeting strategies, argumentation, tactic selection, networking and coalition activity.
