Why do some societies manage to control corruption so that it
manifests itself only occasionally, while other societies remain
systemically corrupt? This book is about how societies reach that
point when integrity becomes the norm and corruption the exception
in regard to how public affairs are run and public resources are
allocated. It primarily asks what lessons we have learned from
historical and contemporary experiences in developing corruption
control, which can aid policy-makers and civil societies in
steering and expediting this process. Few states now remain without
either an anticorruption agency or an Ombudsman, yet no statistical
evidence can be found that they actually induce progress. Using
both historical and contemporary studies and easy to understand
statistics, Alina Mungiu-Pippidi looks at how to diagnose, measure
and change governance so that those entrusted with power and
authority manage to defend public resources.
