Despite Obama’s campaign rhetoric against lobbyists and his administration’s efforts to curb their influence through executive orders and regulatory reforms, lobbying persisted as a powerful force in American politics. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research examines lobbying strategies and campaign finance patterns across key policy areas, including healthcare, financial regulation, climate change, education, and immigration. Special attention is given to the transformative impact of judicial decisions such as Citizens United v. FEC (2010), which redefined the legal framework of political spending. The study demonstrates how interest groups adapted to new regulatory landscapes, employing both direct and indirect strategies to maintain influence over legislation and policymaking. Findings reveal enduring tensions between public policy objectives and private interests, underscoring the structural limits of executive action in restraining entrenched lobbying practices. Ultimately, the current work argues that lobbying remains a constitutionally protected but deeply contested feature of American democracy. Effective regulation, therefore, requires continuous institutional reform to balance democratic accountability with the competing pressures of organized interests.

In light of postcolonial trauma theory framework, this dissertation analyzes how legacies of slavery such as; violence, dehumanization, displacement, exploitation, and cultural erasure shape fragmented individual and communal identities, relationality, memories, and collective trauma. Moreover, the analysis focuses on the intersection between memory and relationality, and their role in shaping the former slaves’ sense of self. This research investigates how Black characters, more specifically, former slaves, navigate the tension between remembering and forgetting to confront past traumatic experiences. Also, it examines the relational dynamics among characters to highlight that identity is not merely an individual construct. Ultimately, I argue that Morrison depicts trauma and healing in ways that align with postcolonial trauma theory, portraying how Black characters in Beloved work through suffering using traditional healing practices, storytelling, spirituality, and communal rituals. The novel thus is a narrative that depicts memory and relationality as vital mechanisms through which Black identities are built and understood in the aftermath of slavery. In the end, this study contends that Morrison illustrates identity not as a solitary endeavor but as one that is deeply rooted in communal and familial relationships, underscoring the necessity of relational healing in postcolonial contexts Sun, 01 Jun 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://dspace.univ-guelma.dz/jspui/handle/123456789/18537 2025-06-01T00:00:00Z
