Inhaltsangabe:

Do today's political parties prefer to distance themselves from various types of interest groups, or do they virtually detach themselves from civil society altogether? These are common questions explored in studies of established democracies, and scholars widely agree that traditionally close relationshipslike those between social democratic parties and trade unionshave grown weaker in many instances. However, only limited systematic research has been done on these political ties. This book provides a theory-driven, comprehensive analysis of Norway's seven major political parties and their relationships with interest groups at the beginning of the new millennium. Based on original and extensive data, Elin Haugsgjerd Allern paints a nuanced picture of the nature, political significance, and possible factors shaping the relations between Norway's party and interest groups.
