In Corruption in Latin America the reader is presented with an
alternative starting point for understanding corruption in this key
region. The author asserts that corruption is a stable and rational
social and organizational mechanism. Seen through this lens, we can
begin to understand why it persists, and how to implement
strategies to control corruption effectively. Beginning with an
in-depth, nuanced examination of the concept of corruption, the
author establishes the theoretical basis for viewing corruption as
a social construct. An analysis of the experiences of four
countries in the region - Argentina, Brazil, Guatemala and Mexico -
provides the reader with concrete data from which they can
understand how and why these behaviors are reproduced, validated,
and tolerated in everyday settings between governments and
citizens, governments and firms, and firms and clients. Once we see
corruption as the socially sanctioned norm for getting business
done, we can begin to produce and propose effective solutions to
reduce corruption in Latin America by designing and implementing
instruments that transform this dynamic. This rigorous and original
approach will challenge the reader's assumptions about corruption,
and will appeal to students of corporate governance, international
business, public management, and business ethics.
