Discussion

wimyogya May 18, 2009:
belangengroep... is volgens mij de enig juiste vertaling van 'interest group'; die vertaling wordt o.m. door Babylon gebruikt. Een 'interest group' is een groep die ergens belang bij heeft - een 'doelgroep' ('focus group') is een groep waar anderen (programmamakers, marketing managers, politici) belang bij hebben.
