Public affairs and lobbying support the dynamics of today`s global business world, and are important as a result. Lobbying is not an industry that is well known and understood by many people. Only a few people have any real idea what lobbyists do and why. Therefore the aim of the paper is to explore this sphere of business, and to describe lobbying activities related to the process of the implementation of Directive 91/477/EEC in Czech legislation and the attitude of Czech society towards this directive. Our research showed that opinions are shared among the members of parliament, the government and interest groups regarding the implementation of this directive in Czech legislation, i.e. the directive violates current Czech legislation which restricts consumers and arms manufacturers. In addition, the adoption of this directive would significantly reduce the rights of citizens to carry weapons and limit the export of the products of arms manufacturers.

This article analyzes the genesis, current state of anti-corruption legislation, its achievements, prospects and key objectives of its development. Much attention is paid to the study of anti-corruption legislation, the dialectical relationship between the correct definition, the essence of corruption and practical state measures to combat it. The effectiveness of anti-corruption measures is determined by the presence of the necessary legal framework and its effective application in practice. The Author believes that the administrative and criminal legislation of Ukraine requires improvements which take into consideration time requirements and the scale of corruption. This article has been created particularly to draw attention to the need for a normative document that would regulate various aspects of lobbying; a very common phenomenon in Ukraine. The author of this article emphasises that in the new anti-corruption legislation of Ukraine instead of the term ‘to fight’, ‘to prevent and to counteract’ have been used. Despite the fact that several acts and regulations on anti-corruption have been implemented, and various pieces of scientific research on this issue have been conducted, a commonly accepted opinion on the nature and structure of the anti-corruption mechanism has not been formed. The normative acts of Ukraine devoted to the fight against corruption describe only individual elements of the legal mechanism to counter corruption. The most complete list of such elements can be found in the Ukrainian legal acts on “On Fight against Corruption” and in some other related regulations (programmes). Having agreed that it is necessary to strengthen the position of ‘preventive and counteractive’ elements, the Author believes that the list of these elements was far from complete, which makes ​​it impossible to talk about the appropriate legal mechanisms of counteracting corruption.

The author draws a clear distinction between criminal activities and the legitimate lobbying practice and points out that all instances of so-called “wild” lobbying i.e.: bribery, paid backing, embezzlement of public funds or property are are offences of corruption, included and defined in the Polish Criminal Code that must be firmly distinguished from the legitimate lobbying.

The article presents the effects of an attempt to ascertain to what extent the Interinstitutional Agreement on a mandatory transparency register affects the phenomenon of lobbying in the European Union (EU). In order to examine the issue, the concept and essence of lobbying in the EU were introduced. Legal regulations concerning EU lobbying were also identified. A further portion of the article analyses the Interinstitutional Agreement of 20 May 2021 between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union, and the European Commission on a mandatory transparency register (IAMTR) in relation to the previously binding Agreement between the Parliament and the European Commission on the transparency register for organisations and self-employed individuals in EU Policy-making and Policy implementation (ATR). The article uses the formal-dogmatic method. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the Interinstitutional Agreement on a mandatory transparency register contains numerous exclusions, both subjective and objective, to registration in the Transparency Register. One positive aspect is the application of the IAMTR to the EU Council also.

The purpose of this article is to analyze and assess the lobbying activities of trans-national corporations. The essence of the study is to draw attention to the conditions of the assessment of ethical lobbying in view of the different standards of individual coun-tries. In the first part of the article the importance of lobbying in building a competitive position was discussed - the strategies and methods of lobbying. In the second part the diversity of perceptions of lobbying in the European and the U.S. systems was highlight-ed, and the consequences of this fact for the assessment of ethical action. In the last part development of the methods of corporate lobbying in the direction of the so-called par¬ticipatory model was indicated. This can be seen as an evidence of a change in relations between the state - business.
