What is Non-associational interest groups?

Non-associational interest groups are organizations or coalitions that represent a specific interest or cause but do not have a formal membership structure or organized leadership. They often emerge spontaneously around particular issues, such as environmental concerns, social movements, or public health crises, and mobilize support through grassroots efforts or informal networks. Unlike traditional interest groups, which typically have a defined membership and formal governance, non-associational groups are characterized by their fluidity and adaptability in addressing immediate concerns.
