Interest Groups and the Election

Darren R. Halpin, Bert Fraussen

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of the various means by which interest groups involved themselves in the 2016 Australian federal election campaign. As far as possible, we address this task through an engagement with the broader political science and public policy literature on interest groups and elections. This literature is sparse, but our hope is that through this contribution we can play some small part in pushing the broader engagement of group scholars with those of elections and political parties.
