Produktbeschreibung

The 1990s have seen an upsurge of interest and concern about the problem of political corruption. At both national and international levels major initiatives continue to be launched by both governmental and non-governmental agencies. A prominent concern has been with democracy and the development of a strong civil society. The papers here collected examine, in a range of national contexts, the relationship between democratization and the task of combating corruption. Do the two processes complement each other or are they ultimately in conflict?

Rezensionen

'Lucid and interesting ... provides both the student of corruption and the seasoned policy maker with evidence that the simplistic notion that democractisation will combat corruption needs re-examination. This collection certainly provides a positive step in this direction.' - Journal of Development Studies

'Unlike most studies on corruption which base their data on hearsay and gossip and give no insight into the internal dynamics of corruption at country level, this contribution gives concrete data on assertions made.' - Development and Change
