Abstract

The project aims to identify associations between the citizens' political interest, perceived transparency of lobbyism, and trust in political institutions. It will also explore the role of lobbying judgments in this process. To do so, an online survey representative of the German populaiton (in terms of age, gender, education) is conducted in spring 2025.
