Institutionalisation of lobbying in Ukraine in the Context of International Standards and Practices
Institutionalisation of lobbying in Ukraine in the Context of International Standards and Practices

Summary/Abstract: Harmonising Ukrainian legislation with European standards, including the legal regulation of lobbying, is a key requirement for Ukraine’s further European integra-tion. This article examines the legal regulation of lobbying in Ukraine, the United States, and within European Union institutions. Particular attention is given to foreign experience, focusing on the advantages and distinctive features of standards and practices in the institutionalisation of lobbying, as well as their potential transfer to the Ukrainian legal system. The study identifies gaps, shortcomings, insufficient regulation, and possible corruption risks in Ukraine’s current legislative framework for lobbying. Based on this analysis, the paper substantiates approaches and offers proposals for optimising the legislative regulation of lobbying in Ukrainian society.
