            Transparency International’s report Money, Power and Politics (2012) showed that in most European countries, the influence of lobbyists is shrouded in secrecy and a major cause for concern.

                Not sure about what you mean by “just the possibility for lobbying doesn’t make any country automatically corrupted” ?
                As Graeber puts it, it’s the peculiarity of the manager class’ centrism to consider that renaming bribery “lobbying” and making it legal solves the problem of corruption.
