Corruption, generally defined as the abuse of entrusted power for
private gains, has been the growing center of attention of many
social scientists since the end of the cold war. Corruption can be
seen in different perspectives depending on cultural background and
it is defined in many spectrums by different scholars. This book
provides current research on the political, economic and social
issues of corruption. The first chapter begins with a review of
social and political issues of a globalised economy. Chapter two
presents a review of the literature on the economics of corruption.
Chapter three tackles corruption in politics and public service.
Chapter four discusses the procurement market from the
macro-perspective and analyses the relationship between level of
corruption and selected indicators of the public procurement
market. Chapter five studies criminal culpability and economic
crisis. Chapter six discusses gendered attitudes towards corruption
and experiences with bribery. Chapter seven explores the
relationship between corruption and gender inequality in Nicaragua.
Chapter eight deals with the influence of multilateral
anti-corruption agreements on the regulatory framework in developed
countries. Chapter nine identifies the relationship between
corruption and the processes of transition in West Balkan
countries. Chapter ten explores corruption in the privatised public
enterprises using selected privatised institutions. Chapter 11
discusses progress and constraints of civil society anti-corruption
initiatives in Uganda. The final chapter analyses three cases of
alleged corruption related to genetically modified foods where
corruption claims based on ethical-critical logics were confronted
with objective-formal counter-arguments.
