Abstract
Abstract This article introduces the Lobbying EU Sanctions dataset. Sanctions have become a decisive tool in international relations, including in the European Union’s (EU) foreign affairs. Business actors are heavily affected by sanctions, especially economic and financial ones. Yet, scholarship and the public know little about how business actors interact with decision-makers in the context of sanctions. The Lobbying EU Sanctions dataset addresses this problem. The dataset builds on an original survey (2020) with European business groups and contains data on their interactions with decision-makers regarding EU restrictive measures. The article discusses the need for fine-grained data on interaction between business groups and decision-makers in the area of sanctions, describes the survey design and structure of the data, presents some initial survey findings, and illustrates how the Lobbying EU Sanctions dataset opens new opportunities for research on sanctions.
期刊介绍：
Reflecting the diverse, comparative and multidisciplinary nature of the field, Foreign Policy Analysis provides an open forum for research publication that enhances the communication of concepts and ideas across theoretical, methodological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries. By emphasizing accessibility of content for scholars of all perspectives and approaches in the editorial and review process, Foreign Policy Analysis serves as a source for efforts at theoretical and methodological integration and deepening the conceptual debates throughout this rich and complex academic research tradition. Foreign policy analysis, as a field of study, is characterized by its actor-specific focus. The underlying, often implicit argument is that the source of international politics and change in international politics is human beings, acting individually or in groups. In the simplest terms, foreign policy analysis is the study of the process, effects, causes or outputs of foreign policy decision-making in either a comparative or case-specific manner.
