Corruption is a serious threat to prosperity, democracy and human
well-being, with mounting empirical evidence highlighting its
detrimental effects on society. Yet defining this threat has
resulted in profound disagreement, producing a multidimensional
concept. Tackling this important and provocative topic, the authors
provide an accessible and systematic analysis of how our
understanding of corruption has evolved. They identify gaps in the
research and make connections between related concepts such as
clientelism, patronage, patrimonialism, particularism and state
capture. A fundamental issue discussed is how the opposite of
corruption should be defined. By arguing for the possibility of a
universal understanding of corruption, and specifically what
corruption is not, an innovative solution to this problem is
presented. This book provides an accessible overview of corruption,
allowing scholars and students alike to see the far reaching place
it has within academic research.
