遊說集團
 | 此條目論述以美國為主，未必有普世通用的觀點。 |
遊說集團（英語：Lobbying），又稱院外集團或政治遊說，是嘗試影響立法人員或立法機構成員的政治決定或行為。遊說由許多不同類型的人員、組織與團體，包括私人機構、企業、部分已經同意遊說目的的立法人員、政府人員或利益團體進行。遊說人員可能是某個選舉區的投票者或已經形成共識的某個團體，也可能是一家公司員工。專業的遊說人員可以代表他們的客戶去影響立法、行政法規、政府決策、行為或政策。個人或非營利組織也可能進行遊說，比如一家公司總裁為了一項計畫與某位代表會談，一個積極份子可能為了某個理念跟立法人員倡議某項法案，政府時常會界定並管制有影響力的遊說團體。
美國
美國議會政治中很有代表性的政治現象。很多為利益集團代言、也有不少遊說集團也同時為公眾利益代言，對擁有立法權的參議院、眾議院兩院的議員進行遊說，並從受益集團獲取經濟利益，這在美國的政治中心城市已經形成了一個產業鏈（旋轉門）。其代表人物是傑克·阿布拉莫夫，有美國遊說業「教父」之稱。
