The Summer School on Interest Groups is organised annually by our Standing Group on Interest Groups. It brings together leading scholars in the fields of interest group politics and civil society to deliver a nine-day intensive course on the core aspects of interest group research.
This year's edition aims at developing interest group research in a truly comparative perspective, focusing on interest group politics in different polities.
Don't miss this chance to learn about political advocacy and lobbying research and to network with peers and leading scholars from all over the world.
