Beyond lobbying regulation
Transparent lobbying goes beyond enacting a single law: lobbying rules—in any form—enhance transparency in political decision-making. We argue that the issue is much more complex than merely introducing lobbying rules, and focusing only on implementing lobbying laws is not a 'silver bullet' regarding transparency objectives. Firstly, the article advocates the advantages of the broader perspective on implementing and evaluating transparent lobbyin…
A black box assessment of institutional quality
Lobbying is considered to be a legitimate feature of democratic systems, but a question arises concerning the methods used to influence decision-making processes in these systems; the behaviour of lobbyists and decision-makers can be non-transparent, and it unfairly influences political processes. These accompanying phenomena significantly affect institutional quality. In this paper, we define the link between transparent decision making and a tr…
Measuring the link between democracy and transparent lobbying
In this paper, we discuss the link between democracy and transparent lobbying indices. We assume that a deeper understanding of attributes of the transparency of lobbying help to develop more complex tools of measurement of quality of democracy. We briefly introduce five common indices of quality of democracy and analyze its indicators in terms of transparency requirements. Second, we present a catalog of all pro-lobbying transparency measures wi…
Open government partnership
One of the factors that contribute to confining corruption opportunity space is transparent lobbying as part of a broader approach to governance, based on the principles of openness, transparency, participation and disclosure. The problem of lack of transparent lobbying is closely related not only to corruption but to increased inequality of access by voices representative of a wide range of interests to public decision-making. This issue is also…

When you defi ne the issues of lobbying in …
