Grant's typology 2000 3.0 / 5 based on 1 rating ? Government & PoliticsUK pressure groups and protest movementsASAQA Created by: HollyCreated on: 16-05-13 21:26 Insider Groups Regularly consulted by government Good Access to corridors of power RSPB. 1 of 3 Outsider Groups Do not want government access or are unable to attain recognition. #UKuncut Rural rebels Farmers For Action 2 of 3 Critisisms The distinction is not clear cut. Some groups pursue insider and outsider strategies at the same time. Friends of the Earth. More groups have a 'insider' status that Grant originally intended. Some groups are consulted by government (sometimes en mass) and their influence may be marginal. The distinction is less valid today because new forms of politics have arisen. More involvement and more arenas (EU). Groups may concentrate on Brussels, are these insider or outsider? 3 of 3
