In 'Hold-up in Brussels', José Bové, in collaboration with Gilles Luneau, delves into the intricacies of European politics and the impact of lobbies on decision-making. Through specific cases and lived experiences, Bové reveals the strategies and influences exerted by pressure groups in the heart of Europe. This book is a denunciation of the connivances between industry lobbyists and European officials, and a call to action to build a more democratic and transparent Europe. With a foreword by Daniel Cohn-Bendit, this work offers a critical and constructive view of the functioning of the European Union.
Joseph "José" Bové is a French farmer, labor leader and alter-globalization activist, and spokesman for Via Campesina. He was one of the twelve official candidates in the 2007 French presidential election. He served in the European Parliament as a member of the European Green Party in 2009–2014 and 2014–2019.
