C) persuade public opinion to be in agreement with their
respective views
Explanation:
The concept of “interests group” was introduced into the scientific circulation by the American scientist Arthur Bentley (1908). By this term, he understood a variety of organized groups of people with specific goals and specific requirements for political power.
Interest groups are trying to influence the government, to adjust the political decisions made in their interests. Moreover, interest groups do not seek to gain power - this is their key difference from party groups. However, this does not mean that interest groups do not delegate their representatives to state authorities and do not contribute to the development of their political career. However, this is done for the sake of more effective political influence and the realization of their interests.
