Many anti-corruption efforts have had only a minimal effect on
curbing the problem of corruption. This book explains why that is,
and shows readers what works in the real world in the fight against
corruption, and why. Counter-corruption initiatives often focus on
the legal, institutional, and contextual factors that facilitate
corrupt behavior, but these have had only nominal impacts, because
most of these reforms can be circumvented by government officials,
powerful citizens, and business people who are relentless in their
quest for self-interest. This book argues that instead, we should
target the key individual and group drivers of corrupt behavior
and, through them, promote sustainable behavioral change. Drawing
on over 25 years of practical experience planning, designing, and
implementing anti-corruption programs in over 40 countries, as well
as a wealth of insights from social psychological, ethical, and
negotiation research, this book identifies innovative tools that
target these core human motivators of corruption, with descriptions
of pilot tests that show how they can work in practice.
Anti-corruption is again becoming a priority issue, prompted by the
emergence of more authoritarian regimes, and the public scrutiny of
government responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. Straddling theory
and practice, this book is the perfect guide to what works and what
doesn't, and will be valuable for policymakers, NGOs, development
practitioners, and corruption studies students and researchers.
