| dc.description.abstract | 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 with four categories involving lobbyists, targets of lobbying, sunshine rules, and monitoring and sanctioning rules. Third, we carry out a statistical analysis of the democracy indices and lobbying indices. Fourth, we identify sub-indicators in the introduced indices and assign a value to each individual indicator in the indices to determine whether measures of transparent lobbying have relevance with respect to these indicators. Finally, the paper concludes with a discussion of the links found between indicators of the quality of democracy and transparent lobbying. | cs |
