Recenzii

'Interest group influence is infamously hard to document and measure. In this book, McKay provides the best evidence we have ever had of the 'smoking gun' of that influence. Meticulously researched and engagingly written, this book is a must read for anyone who cares about lobbyists in the policymaking process.' Beth Leech, Professor of Political Science, Rutgers University
'For years, interest group scholars have routinely found inconsistent and contradictory evidence that money buys legislative favors. The problem is that the kinds of quid pro quo favors we fear most are nearly impossible to observe. Stealth Lobbying offers a welcome corrective to how scholars think about money and politics. Amy McKay relies on her own experience in Congress and keen social science mind to offer an ambitious theory and compelling evidence that leaves little room for skepticism that money indeed buys legislation.' Tim M. LaPira, Professor of Political Science, James Madison University
'Stealth lobbying carefully tackles the perhaps hardest question in interest group research – how to identify group influence - relying on novel methods and a unique mix of new data sources about the Affordable Care Act not analyzed systematically on such a large scale before. Its approach and findings will be a reference point for those exploring the often-quiet efforts of lobbyists to put their mark on legislation in and beyond the US context.' Anne Rasmussen, Professor of Political Science, University of Copenhagen
