520 |a"The relationship between the federal government and interest groups has drawn increasing attention in recent years. The focus of this paper is on the advocacy activities of interest groups in relation to the federal government, but it is fully recognized that such groups also engage in a myriad of other activities, including, among others, the provision of services to their members and the greater community, a vehicle for the gathering of information on a particular issue, dissemination of that information, and research concerning it, and the creation of a social network for like-minded individuals within society. A central question regarding government-interest group relations pertains to government funding of their activities. More specifically, the question is, given the reduced availability of government resources and increasing demand for those resources by interest groups and others, which groups if any should receive funds? While funding is critical, it is only one aspect of government-interest group relations. The purpose of this "think piece" is to examine both the financial and other aspects of government-interest group relations and, if necessary, to suggest possible initiatives which will enhance the fairness, openness, and perceived legitimacy of such relations"--Executive summary, page i.
