This article focuses on a wide range of biases against lobbying, which emerge as myths, misconceptions, and stereotypes. These biases skew the image of reality around lobbying, which can be addressed by the introduction of its regulation. Such practice exists in over 20 countries, most of them being members of the EU. Regulation of lobbying in these and other countries is practiced both at the national and the subnational levels. EU also gives an example of supranational regulation of lobbying. The proliferation of lobbying regulation across so many countries has encouraged international organizations such as the Commonwealth of Interdependent States, OECD, and the Council of Europe to develop recommendations on lobbying regulation for their country members. |
