Interest Groups in the Appropriations Process: "The Wasted Profession" Revisited.

Meier, Kenneth J.; van Lohuizen, J. R.

Social Science Quarterly, v59 n3 p482-95 Dec 1978

Analyzes the impact that interest groups have on a portion of the public policy process. Findings indicate that agencies with large and/or intense clientele support fare no better in the appropriations process than agencies without support. Bureaus with large and/or intense congressional support receive the same treatment as all other bureaus. (Author/KC)
