Western interest groups apply strategies that reflect American and European lobbying practices in China rather than Chinese or corporatist lobbying actions;
-
Are truly membership-driven organisations;
-
Have a preference for non-confrontational lobbying strategies, such as through membership mobilisation;
-
Target Western policymakers most frequently (venue shift);
-
Pursue pluralist avenues within China’s corporatist system.
