Corruption in a Global Context

Restoring Public Trust, Integrity, and Accountability

«

"In addressing a relevant, current and dramatically global sensitive issue such as corruption, this book brings huge contributions based on contextualized and evidence-oriented analyses, approaching the problem from different national perspectives, which greatly advances the understanding of this complex phenomenon so associated with the local and regional specificities." -- Bianor Scelza Cavalcanti, Past President of the International Association of Schools and Institutes of Public Administration, Brazil

"Two important points to remember are first, not all corruption is the same, and second, some places are more corrupt than others. This book reinforces these messages through analysis of the politics, economies, cultures, religions, public sector values, and the level of development of democratic institutions that were maturing at differing times and levels, particularly in Africa, South America, and South Asia." -- Adam Graycar, Professor of Public Policy, The University of Adelaide, Australia

This book is the result of a major accomplishment. It provides a full-fledged analysis of corruption, as it compares theories on its causes, compares varying historical contexts, includes countries not often included in such research, and provides an excellent framework for addressing corruption in varying contexts in an effective way." -- Michiel S de Vries, Academic chair in Public Administration at Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands¿

"This book brings together an excellent set of papers prepared by scholars throughout the world dealing with what is probably the most significant problem any government faces, namely ensuring the integrity of its actions. It is a must-read for students, academics and practitioners." -- Allan Rosenbaum, Professor, Institute for Public Management and Center for Democracy and Good Governance, Steven J. Green School of International & Public Affairs, Florida International University, USA

"This publication is a timely contribution to the ongoing debate on whether good governance and sustainable development is achievable by combating corruption in developing and transitional countries. The book addresses a wide range of issues regarding corruption which will allow readers to understand the general scale of the problem and how to deal with it. This is a must-read by relevant academics, practitioners and graduate students of public administration, public policy, political science, governance, international relations, sociology, and development studies." -- Shahjahan Bhuiyan, Associate Professor of Public Administration, and Associate Dean School of Global Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP), The American University in Cairo, Egypt

This book provides an important survey of the causes and current state of corruption across a range of nations and regions. Delving into the diverse ways in which corruption is being combatted, the book explores and describes efforts to inculcate principles of ethical conduct in citizens, private sector actors and public sector personnel and institutions.



Corruption is a global condition that effects every type of government, at every level, and has bewitched scholars of governance from ancient times to the present day. The book brings together chapters on a range of state and regional corruption experiences, framing them in terms of efforts to enhance ethical conduct and achieve integrity in government practices and operations. In addition, the book addresses and analyses the theoretical and practical bases of ethics that form the background and historical precepts of efforts to create integrity in government practices, and finally assesses recent international efforts to address corruption on an international scale.



This book will be perfect for researchers and upper level students of public administration, comparative government, international development, criminal justice, and corruption.
