workers, employees, business persons, industrialists, followers of a religion,
caste group, etc.
(iii) Their principal concern is the betterment and well
being of their members, not society in general.

some common or general interest that needs to be defended.

the cause that the organisation represents. The Bolivian organisation FEDECOR
is an example.
