Abstract

This chapter presents the results from interviews with EU associations, their members and non-members. Focusing the discussion in this chapter on domain-based associations, it identifies the patterns that arose in assessing causal factors of variation and similarity between associations in their ability to unify their members’ interests, and to secure the compliance of their members with associational goals, that is their ‘governability’. Given that most of these factors are present in the external environment of associations and are matters over which associations have little influence, the results presented in this chapter should not be read as an appraisal of these organisations. Thus, the results presented in Tables 4.1–4.3 in the pages that follow, obtained from following the methodology outlined in Chapter 2, are not ‘league tables’ of ‘associational effectiveness’ or ‘performance’, rather they seek to assess the factors of governability proposed in Chapter 3, to help identify the causal factors of variation between associations. Because of this, the discussion of results in this chapter after presentation of the tables occurs without a detailed focus upon any one individual association.
