Jeremy Richardson has held chairs of Political Science at the Universities of Strathclyde, Warwick, Essex, and Oxford. He is a recognised authority in the fields of comparative public policy and the EU policy process and has published widely over a period of more than forty years.

He also remains an Emeritus Fellow at Nuffield College, Oxford. He was co-editor, with Sonia Mazey, of the very successful 1993 volume on Lobbying in the EC, of which this new volume is the successor.
