Interest group politics refers to the activities and strategies employed by organized groups to influence government policy and decision-making. These groups represent a wide range of interests, including businesses, labor unions, environmental advocates, and other civil society organizations. They engage in activities such as lobbying, campaigning, and mobilizing public support to sway policymakers. Interest group politics can shape legislation, impact electoral outcomes, and foster debates on critical issues. While they can enhance democratic participation, they may also lead to disparities if certain interests dominate the political landscape.
