The distincion between lobbyng and corruption

Ovaj specijalistički diplomski rad bavi se lobiranjem, korupcijom i razlikom između lobiranja i korupcije. Svrha je ovog rada istražiti koliko je javnost svjesna granice između lobiranja i koruptivnih aktivnosti pa se stoga već na početku rada navode definicije lobiranja, jer je ono još uvijek dosta neprepoznato u Hrvatskoj. Pojašnjena je metodologija lobiranja, vrste lobiranja te tko sve lobira. Bitno je napomenuti da lobiraju svi, a ne samo interesne skupine i stranke. Također skreće se pozornost i na to da se građani mogu i sami angažirati te utjecati na nečije odluke, zakone odnosno sam predmet lobiranja. Također, definirana je korupcija da bi se pobliže pojasnilo što je to uopće. Cilj je rada upozoriti na to da, ako se zakoni krše, lobiranje prelazi u korupciju te da lobiranje treba biti zakonski regulirano i određeno Ustavom. Razmatrani su i mogući razlozi zašto se lobiranje poistovjećuje s korupcijom. Uz to, navedene su regulacije na području Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, Europske Unije i Hrvatske. U radu se istraživanjem ispituje osviještenost građana Republike Hrvatske o razgraničenju između lobiranja i korupcije. Na temelju metode anketnog upitnika utvrđeno je da su građani upoznati s granicom između lobiranja i korupcije te s aferama iz tog područja, ali ne i tim da trebala postojati zakonska regulativa. Može se zaključiti da su uz lobiranje se u javnosti još uvijek vežu negativne konotacije pa bi se u budućnosti trebalo težiti tome da antikorupcijske mjere budu još snažnije, a lobiranje zakonski regulirano.This specialist thesis deals with lobbying, corruption and the difference between lobbying and corruption.
