This volume provides a comprehensive review of the empirical
evidence on corruption generated by recent laboratory and field
experiments conducted by economists and political scientists. The
first part of the volume reviews the evidence produced by
laboratory experiments in relation to gender and cultural
differences in corruption decision-making, as well as the
effectiveness of different anti-corruption policies. This part
concludes with an assessment of the external validity of corruption
investigations relying on laboratory experiments. The second part
of the volume reviews recent contributions to corruption research
made through the use of field experiments. Special attention is
given to advances in measuring corruption in the field,
investigations of clientelism and vote-buying, and the role that
information can play in the fight against corruption. A critical
assessment of the effectiveness of top-down and bottom-up
anti-corruption interventions completes this section. The volume
concludes with important reflections on the role that behavioral
and experimental economics can play in anti-corruption research and
practice.
