Using a concise, comparative approach based on original case studies Political Corruption in Comparative Perspective: Sources, Status and Prospects provides context and clarity on this complex problem. Cases analysed include countries and organizations as diverse as The United States, Brazil, Russia, China, Israel, India, Pakistan, NGOs and The United Nations. International contributors discuss the historical background of political corruption in a particular country, region or organisation and focus on the causes and consequences of that corruption before offering overviews and opinion on how the problem might be addressed.
