“…After an internal coordination process (cf. Thurner and Stoiber 2002) within the ministerial bureaucracy and the cabinet, governments send delegations to level one negotiations. These delegations then officially declare initial negotiation positions with respect to the issues on the agenda.…”

This article describes selective results of a large‐scale study of within‐governmental coordination processes and international negotiations. We examined a European Union intergovernmental conference (IGC), the so‐called IGC 1996, which led to the Amsterdam Treaty, from a quantitative negotiation analysis perspective. Our focus of attention has been the embeddedness of international negotiations within formal governmental organizations and within informal communication networks. We have identified the relative impact on negotiation dynamics and on negotiation performance of each of the parties by using various statistical techniques. We argue that such insights can be used for a research‐based consulting in which social scientists respond to practitioners’“what‐if” questions with evidence‐based simulations and scenarios.

“…A second and largely descriptive literature focuses on the importance that other ministries, parties and parliamentary actors play in the 'national coordination of EU policy', as one monograph is called (Kassim et al, 2000; see also Thurner and Stoiber, 2002). A third strand examines how interest groups influence the negotiation stance of governments (Baltz et al, 2004, Schneider andBaltz, 2003a, b).…”

This article examines the discretionary power of national governments in EU policy making, focusing on the preparatory stage of European legislation. We assess the conditions under which the ministry in charge of the pre-negotiations is able to withstand attempts of domestic stakeholders to change the national bargaining stance. Our case studies and multivariate regressions on 15 legislative proposals show that the overall conflict between domestic stakeholders and pressure from powerful interest groups make such changes more likely. Parliamentary actors and parties do, conversely, not possess much power in these often technical deliberations. Although governments and their bureaucracies have to yield in some situations, they possess ample discretion in the average decision-making process. We illustrate our findings with a comparative case study on the controversial attempt by the Commission to regulate the usage of PVC softeners in toys.
