Brady, Chair Professor Paul Pierson Professor David Vogel Professor Neil Fligstein Fall 2010 The Business of America is Lobbying: The Expansion of Corporate Political Activity and the Future of American Pluralism Copyright 2010 by Lee Jared Drutman Abstract The Business of America is Lobbying: The Expansion of Corporate Political Activity and the Future of American Pluralism by Lee Jared Drutman Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Henry E. Brady, Chair Why does corporate lobbying in Washington, DC continue to expand, year after year? What are companies lobbying for, and why? And what, if anything, can the patterns of activity tell us about both the impact corporate lobbying is having and the ways in which the political economy of the United States is changing? I argue that the modern growth of corporate lobbying reflects a path-dependent learning process. Companies may come to Washington for many different reasons, but the act of establishing an office sets in motion several reinforcing processes that make companies value lobbying more and more over time and that lead companies to become more proactive in their political strategies. Lobbyists teach managers about the importance of being politically active and help to point out (and sometimes even create) new opportunities for lobbying.

In other words, reasoning is used when you infer one claim on the basis of another. For example, if you see a great deal of snow falling from the sky outside your bedroom window one morning, you can reasonably conclude that it’s probably cold outside. Or, if you see a man smiling broadly, you can reasonably conclude that he is at least somewhat happy.
