| Summary, etc. |
Representative governments tend to encourage competing interests while moderating the conflict that inevitably accompanies group competition. Interest groups have an enormous role to play in politics in modern democracies. These groups play a very important part in supporting parties and politicians, raising issues onto the political agenda. Groups compete on a more or less level playing field created by the national and state constitutions as well as by laws. As a result, multiple competing interests are believed to create a stable political environment that allows those interests to be represented before the government. While most of the lobbying is done by business and professional interests through paid professionals, some lobbyists represent non-profits and work voluntarily for issues in which they are personally interested. But this trend is seen as a controversial phenomenon by journalists and the public, and frequently misunderstood. - Reproduced. |
