The preceding examples are just that: examples. Quality control over prediction tools like the 9152 Aprovometro is performed by those who subscribe to the service and are constantly monitoring the 9153 model's degree of hits and misses. 9154 As Box said, models are always wrong, but some of them are more useful than others. JOTA's 9155 team of data scientists believes in combining methods found in tools like the Aprovometro with views 9156 from experts in the field who are qualitatively capturing the political winds. By using methods like 9157 those presented in this book, it is possible to reduce the degree of uncertainty inherent in Brazil's 9158 public institutions.

In recent decades Washington has seen an alarming rise in the number of "revolving door lobbyists"—politicians and officials cashing in on their government experience to become influence peddlers on K Street. These lobbyists, popular wisdom suggests, sell access to the highest bidder. Revolving Door Lobbying tells a different, more nuanced story. As an insider interviewed in the book observes, where the general public has the "impression that lobbyists actually get things done, I would say 90 percent of what lobbyists do is prevent harm to their client from the government." Drawing on extensive new data on lobbyists’ biographies and interviews with dozens of experts, authors Timothy M. LaPira and Herschel F. Thomas establish the facts of the revolving door phenomenon—facts that suggest that, contrary to widespread assumptions about insider access, special interests hire these lobbyists as political insurance against an increasingly dysfunctional, unpredictable government. With their insider experience, revolving door lobbyists offer insight into the political process, irrespective of their connections to current policymakers. What they provide to their clients is useful and marketable political risk-reduction. Exploring this claim, LaPira and Thomas present a systematic analysis of who revolving door lobbyists are, how they differ from other lobbyists, what interests they represent, and how they seek to influence public policy. The first book to marshal comprehensive evidence of revolving door lobbying, LaPira and Thomas revise the notion that lobbyists are inherently and institutionally corrupt. Rather, the authors draw a complex and sobering picture of the revolving door as a consequence of the eroding capacity of government to solve the public’s problems.

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Miscellaneous, grade: A, University of Ibadan, course: Journalism, language: English, abstract: Lobbying is seen as a dirty word in the political space. It has been compared to subverting the interests of others, deliberate use of positions, personality, power and wealth swing the mind of policymakers in a certain way. Media portrayal of lobbying often gives the impression that those who lobby do that to the detriment of the whole public. It is also seen as that area of government or public life that is wielded away from the public gaze. Be that as it may, the word lobby comes from the incident that occurred after the fire that burned the first American White House, President Ulysses Grant, who was living in a hotel at the time, protested about the involvement of all the people who were waiting on the ground floor (lobby) to try to sway him. The word hasn't changed. While the term may have acquired wider usage in Washington, D.C. as a result of this activity during the Grant Administration, the Oxford English Dictionary lists several recorded uses of the term long before Grant's presidency, including use in Pennsylvania as early as 1808.

Public affairs today is more than just political lobbying. It requires working with other policy-making bodies, such as regulators, commercial organizations and other interested parties. Public Affairs in Practice is the first book to examine the methods public affairs professionals use to make an impact. It covers each aspect of the industry and examines the tools needed to deliver an effective public affairs program. It also highlights the potential benefits of public affairs, including protection from perceived threats of new regulation, identifying new market opportunities and raising the profile of an organization. Not only do the authors consider established markets (the US, UK and Western Europe), but also the opportunities presented to companies by the EU accession states and China, where there are currently very few public affairs professionals. With case studies and tips from industry professionals, this is a practical how-to guide for both practitioners and students.

Why do firms lobby? This paper exploits the unanticipated sequestration of federal budget accounts in March 2013 that reduced the availability of government funds disbursed through procurement contracts to shed light on this question. Following this event, firms with little or no prior exposure to the federal accounts that experienced cuts reduced their lobbying spending. In contrast, firms with a high degree of exposure to the cuts maintained and even increased their lobbying spending. This suggests that, when the same number of contractors competed for a piece of a reduced pie, the more affected firms likely intensified their lobbying efforts to distinguish themselves from the others and improve their chances of procuring a larger share of the smaller overall. These findings are stronger in government-dependent sectors and when there is intense competition. The evidence is more consistent with a rent-seeking explanation for lobbying.
