Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments worldwide are developing sunshine policies that increase transparency in politics, where a key initiative is regulating lobbyists. Building on the pioneering first edition, this book updates its examination of all jurisdictions with regulations, from the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia, and Australia. Unlike any book, it offers unique insights into how the regulations compare and contrast against each other, offering a revamped theoretical classification of different regulatory environments and situating each political system therein. This edition innovatively considers different measurements to capture the robustness of lobbying laws in terms of promoting transparency and accountability. And, based on the authors’ experience of advising governments globally, it closes with a no-nonsense guide on how to make a lobbying law. This is of value to policymakers seeking to introduce or amend regulations, and lobbyists seeking to influence this process.

Book excerpt: " ... outlines and analyzes the regulation of lobbying and lobbyists at the federal and state levels. At the federal level, the portfolio devotes considerable attention to the provisions and requirements of the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995, which greatly expanded the scope of federal lobbying registration and disclosure. The provisions of the tax code that apply to lobbying--particularly those that limit the deductibility of lobbying expenses--are also discussed at length. In addition, the portfolio addresses a number of other federal statutes and rules that affect corporate lobbyists, including the Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007, Foreign Agents Registration Act, the Byrd Amendment, congressional and executive branch gift rules, post-employment restrictions, and the Noerr-Pennington doctrine. Finally, the portfolio considers the myriad of state lobbying laws. Although every state has enacted laws governing lobbying, the scope of regulated activity varies widely. For this reason, the portfolio treats state regulation more generally, highlighting trends and common approaches to the regulation of state lobbying"--Portfolio description sheet (p. iii).

Download or read book The Politics of Persuasion written by Urs Steiner Brandt and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU is at a crossroads. Should it choose the path towards protectionism or the path towards free trade? This book convincingly argues that lobbying regulation will be a decisive first step towards fulfilling the European dream of free trade, in accordance with the original purpose of the Treaty of Rome. Without the regulation of lobbyists to try and prevent undue political persuasion, there is a greater risk of abuse in the form of corruption, subsidies and trade barriers, which will come at the expense of consumers, tax payers and competitiveness. This interdisciplinary approach – both theoretical and methodological – offers a wealth of knowledge concerning the effect of lobbying on political decision-making and will appeal to academics across the social sciences, practitioners and policy-makers.

Book excerpt: Black & white print. American Government 3e aligns with the topics and objectives of many government courses. Faculty involved in the project have endeavored to make government workings, issues, debates, and impacts meaningful and memorable to students while maintaining the conceptual coverage and rigor inherent in the subject. With this objective in mind, the content of this textbook has been developed and arranged to provide a logical progression from the fundamental principles of institutional design at the founding, to avenues of political participation, to thorough coverage of the political structures that constitute American government. The book builds upon what students have already learned and emphasizes connections between topics as well as between theory and applications. The goal of each section is to enable students not just to recognize concepts, but to work with them in ways that will be useful in later courses, future careers, and as engaged citizens. In order to help students understand the ways that government, society, and individuals interconnect, the revision includes more examples and details regarding the lived experiences of diverse groups and communities within the United States. The authors and reviewers sought to strike a balance between confronting the negative and harmful elements of American government, history, and current events, while demonstrating progress in overcoming them. In doing so, the approach seeks to provide instructors with ample opportunities to open discussions, extend and update concepts, and drive deeper engagement.
