Discussion Post: Gallagher Laver and Mair
Answer one of the following questions in your post:
1) What is corporatism? How does corporatism relate to what you know about interest groups in the United States in a reputational sense? What can we learn from European countries that display corporatist trends?
2) What are the effects of pluralism? Why might groups concerned with the environment, women's issues, or other concerns have an easier time being heard in a pluralist system? What other issue advocates (if any) might become prominent in Europe in coming years? Why?
3) What are policy networks? Why are they salient at the level of the European Union? How might the revolution in Information Technology change them?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
