Lobby activities are often likened to the misuse of authority and bad practices. Such parallels generate problems that easily spiral down into crises and conflicts, and the symbiosis of politics and business turns into an ambiguous platform.
In Romania public interest is often defined in a private or personal framework, whereas private interests are defined in markedly public terms. To what extent is the politics-business relationship deemed appropriate? Which are its constraints, prerequisites and possible sanctions? These are the questions which accompany the dilemmas that we address in this paper.
