Corruption in Africa makes a significant contribution to the study
of the impacts and eradication of corruption in African societies.
John Mukum Mbaku offers a comprehensive analysis of the causes of
public malfeasance in African countries and provides a number of
practical and effective policy options for change. This book
demonstrates the destructive relationship between corruption and
the abrogation of economic freedoms and entrepreneurship, a system
that has clearly left Africa as one of the most deprived regions in
the world. Utilizing the tools of public choice theory, Mbaku
emphasizes the important role that institutions have in corruption
control and he recommends reconstructive democratic constitutions
as the most effective means of development. Until African states
provide their people with institutional arrangements that
adequately constrain the state and enhance wealth production, the
living standards in the continent will continue to deteriorate.
Corruption in Africa is a fascinating and informative text that
will appeal to those interested in African studies and
developmental policies.
