Abstract
This chapter is dedicated to the development of a theoretical framework to explain the differences in membership numbers of noneconomic interest groups. My theoretical argument is based on the decision-making of individuals. I therefore elaborate my assumptions about the logic of action and the hierarchy of preferences which specify the interests of individuals.
