Question

This problem with interest group membership develops when potential members fail to join because they can get the benefit sought by the group without contributing the effort or financial membership dues?

Answer 1

Free Rider or collective action

Step-by-step explanation:

Free rider or collective action refers to the problem in which individual think that when a joint action will be done, that is some collective act will take place no matter what, they they free ride.

Which means they withdraw to perform as they believe that their individual act will not change anything and the result shall be collective.

Every individual thinks their contribution does not matter.

Accordingly potential members who can actually make a difference by their individual corporation tend to move out and not perform and then cumulatively the results are affected.
