Summary/Abstract: To lobby means to influence or persuade public officials to take a desired action, usually to pass (or defeat) legislation. An effective lobbyist is convincing and persuasive at selling an idea. The first legislative attempts to regulate lobbying activities in USA were passed in the late nineteenth century and those early statutes have served as models for every lobbying enactment since that time. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of recent studies devoted to the interest of companies and lobbying patterns. After the definition of lobbying and description of the actors, this paper relates to lobbying contract. A basic question raised by the cases on lobbying contracts is whether the law of contract should be used as an indirect means of enforcing social and political public policy, particularly when that policy is not directly enunciated and enforced in any other area of the legal system.
