Many people had argued against the new Constitution claiming that the US would be too large to govern as a democracy (republic) and had too many interest groups, or "factions," as political parties were then called. While Madison acknowledged that there were many differing factions, he also indicated that a democratic form of government, using the ideal of majority rule, would tame the factions and cause them to work together as much as possible. He claimed that the republican form of government created by the new Constitution would allow all the factions the room and venues to express themselves and to influence the workings of government by getting their members elected and/or appointed to James_Madison_wanted_to_prevent_factions_or_special_interest_groups_Would_it_be_possible_to_have_a_'democratic'_government_without_interest_groups. Minority groups would be protected because the factions would have to negotiate their differences. In this way, the republic would create a system of government in which the majority would rule but the ideas of the minority would have to be taken into consideration. Numerous factions would also mean that no one group would be able to take complete control of the government and this would give rise to what Madison called "politics," namely, the art of governing.

One way the government tries to keep interest groups from forming bad public policy is by not letting government workers join interest groups.
Three types of interest groups are civil rights interest groups, religious groups, and economic interest groups. Additional types include ideological interest groups, single-issue groups, and government interest groups. There are thousands of interests groups in all.

civil society is an organization formed in the society to push societal interest to the government without any political affiliation whiles pressure groups are groups formed by group of people with similar interest and mind to push their interest to the government for the benefit of their members only and sometimes have political affiliations
Interest groups are good and bad. Good-- They give a stronger voice to people in government. Bad-- They have to much power in government. So that basically says it all about interest groups.
citizens can affect policies without running for office
