Abstract:V zadnjih nekaj desetletjih se je moč elit in neformalnih mrež, oz. interesnih skupin, v katere so elite povezane, močno povečala. Ljudje namreč postajajo čedalje bolj nezadovoljni z obstoječimi gospodarskimi razmerami, za katere upravičeno krivijo svoje vlade. Vse bolj se tudi zavedajo, da je najboljši način za uresničitev svojih interesov, ustanavljanje ali pridružitev interesnim skupinam, preko katerih lahko vplivajo na državne organe, ketere skušajo prepričati v sprejem ali zavrnitev določene odločitve. Tej aktivnosti pravimo lobiranje. Zelo pogosto pa so uporabljene lobistične metode sporne in mejijo na korupcijo. Slednja je žal sestavni del vsake družbe, česar se zavedajo predvsem v tranzicijskih državah, kjer obstajajo idealne okoliščine za pojav korupcije. Moralni vakuum, reprodukcija stare skorumpirane nomenklature, neobstoj pravne države, in še bi lahko naštevali. Res je, da ima nelegalno lobiranje številne negativne posledice, ne smemo pa pozabiti, da so interesne skupine in lobiranje bistveni sestavini demokracije, ki prinašajo v družbo številne pozitivne učinke, saj posredujejo med posamezniki in državo; večajo prostor za politično udeležbo in s tem omejujejo politično odtujitev; so izraz svobode, tudi politične, saj omogočajo ljudjem zasledovanje lastnih interesov; izražajo interese, ki bi sicer ostali zanemarjeni; so dopolnilo k procesu odločanja, ki zagotavlja ravnotežje družbeno-političnega sistema, ker vplivajo na stranke, javnost in vlado; itd. Četudi drži, da vsaka družba po svoje definira kaj je sprejemljivo in kaj ne, velja tudi, da postaja svet z globalizacijo vse manjši, države pa čedalje bolj povezane med seboj. Prav zaradi slednjega in zaradi preprečevanja širjenja nelegalnega lobiranja, mora vsaka država poskrbeti za regulacijo področja interesnega predstavništva in lobiranja s sprejetjem ustreznih zakonov, kot je storila tudi Slovenija. Predvsem pa mora biti poslanstvo vsake družbe vzgoja novih in starih generacij v duhu poštenosti, spoštovanja zakona, etičnih in moralnih načel in ''zdravih'' vrednot. Takšni državljani se bodo prav gotovo borili za koristi celotne družbe in uresničitev javnega interesa.

Abstract:In the last few decades, the power and influence of elites, informal networks, or interest groups, in which elites are connected, has greatly increased. People are becoming more and more dissatisfied with the exsisting economic conditions, for which they justly blame their governments. They are also more aware that the best way to accomplish their own interests, is setting up or joining interest groups, via which they can influence the authorities and convince them to accept or decline a certain decision. This activity is called lobbying. This activities are often questionable, bordering on corruption. Alas the latter is part of every society, of which are expecially aware in the transitional countries, which have ideal circumstances for the occurence of corruption. Moral vacuum, the reproduction of the old corrupt nomenclatura, the absence of the legal state, ect. It is true that illegal lobbying has many negative consequences, but we must not forget that interest groups and lobbying are a fundamental part of democracy, that bring many positive effects to society, since they mediate between individuals and the state; they increase political participation and thus limit political alienation; they are the expression of freedom, also political one, because they enable people to pursue their own interests; they express interests which would otherwise remain unvoiced; they are an addition to the decision-making process that ensures the balance of the socio-political system, because they influence the parties, the public and the government; ect. Even if it's true that every society has a diferent definition of what is acceptable and what isn't, it is also true, that due to globalisation, the world is becoming smaller and the countries more connected. It is becouse of the latter and the prevention of spreading of illegal lobbying, that every country must attend to the regulation of the interest representation and lobbying sphere, by passing the adequate laws, as did Slovenia. But above all, the mission of every society must be the educaton of the new and old generations in the spirit of honesty, respect of the law, etical and moral principles and ''sound'' values. That kind of citizens will undoubtedly fight for the benefit of all society and the accomplishment of public interest.
