Congress and Lobbies: Image and Reality

by Andrew M. Scott

This volume examines the actual impact of interest groups on members of Congress. Based on interviews with a broad sample of membership of the House of Representatives, the study makes it clear that the situation is more complex than is normally realized and that the influence of lobbies is often exaggerated. The research focuses on the critically important question of the response to lobbying activity.
