This guide is pitched for A-level teachers looking to keep up with modern developments, and/or to provide material to more advanced students who may be able to go beyond the basics to grasp more difficult approaches to the study of pressure groups and their interaction with government. This guide outlines some key themes in recent literature, it examines some core and advanced topics and provides some new case studies.
The PSA would like to thank Professor Paul Cairney for putting together this School Topic Guide.
Professor Paul Cairney currently works at the University of Stirling; his research focussing on comparative public policy. You can keep up with his latest work by following his blog.
