This book examines lobbying in EU foreign policy-making and the activities of non-state actors (NSAs), focusing on EU foreign policy on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It sheds light on the interactions between the EU and NSAs as well as the ways in which NSAs attempt to shape EU foreign policies. By analysing issues that have not yet received systematic attention in the literature, this book offers new insights into lobbying in EU foreign policy, EU relations surrounding the conflict and the EU's broader role in the peace process.

The book will be of key interest to scholars and students of political science, international relations, EU politics, EU foreign policy-making, Middle East studies and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Industry Reviews

'Benedetta Voltolini's book is an insightful and inspiring read, essential for all those with an interest in European integration, European foreign policy, interest groups and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Uncovering the role of non-state actors in EU policy towards the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been long overdue. Voltolini has done a superb job at opening up this new avenue of research.'

- Nathalie Tocci, Deputy Director IAI and Special Advisor to the EU High Representative

'The book plunges into the fascinating and poorly known universe of lobbying on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Private actors from both sides of the conflict do not co-opt policy-makers, but their actions shape how issues are understood and communicated. By analysing commercial and humanitarian policies, the book demonstrates that non-state actors contribute significantly to areas that we associate more commonly with high politics and diplomatic relations. A must-read for anyone who wants to know how the European Union's foreign policy is made.'

- Cornelia Woll, Professor of Political Science, Sciences Po, Paris
