Strict Regulation of Lobbying Activities in Lithuania by a Special Law Rimgaudas Gelezevicius

The history of lobbying in modern Lithuania is not long but it has some distinctive features. The most important one is the attempt to regulate lobbying according to strict Anglo-Saxon legal model and clearly determine its legitimate and illegal forms. This modeli is based on the system of permits for legal lobbying forms and, conversely, prohibition of non-legitimized lobbying phenomena. Has it been a success? The author of this monograph is trying to answer this question.
