Preferred term

interest intermediation  

Definition

  • One of the central pillars in theories of governance is that during the past thirty years, the relationship between the state and civil society has undergone significant change. More precisely, it is claimed that instead of the state imposing its government on the economy and society, public bodies now govern with and alongside groups who represent varying collective interests and, thus, engage in interest intermediation.
