Description

Where Corruption Lives presents an up-to-date and comprehensive global survey of the presence of official corruption in governance. It links theoretical perspectives to common practices found throughout the world, examining both liberal democracies with their relatively clean governance and autocracies where corruption is institutionalized. The contributors explore the initiatives being taken by national governments and international organizations to combat and reduce corrupt practices, and assesses their chances of success or failure. No comparable comparative study of official corruption exists, and this book will be essential reading for students of comparative politics, public administration, and public ethics.
