Recognising that corruption is a serious problem in the globalised
world of the early twenty-first century, the book takes the reader
on a journey - beginning with what corruption is, why its study is
important and how it can be measured. From there it moves on to
explore corruption's causes, its consequences and how it can be
tackled - before discovering how these things are playing out in
the established liberal democracies, in the former communist
regimes and in the newly industrialised and 'developing' world. On
the way it takes a couple of detours - first, to explore
corruption's mechanisms and dynamics and second to survey the
scandals to which it may give rise. The book is therefore offered
as an informative 'travel guide' of potential interest to
journalists and policy makers as well as to students and academics.
