Out of Sight, but Close to the Heart of Power: Mobilising Politically for French Overseas Territories in Strasbourg and Brussels
摘要
This chapter focuses on Eurodom, the business lobby for* French overseas territories, analysing how it has come to occupy a central position in the definition of EU policy for the outermost regions. Taking a historical and sociological approach, it investigates the positions and resources of the association’s members, which lie at the intersection of European and technical/executive dynamics and national and political/parliamentary dynamics.
