Corruption is a significant problem for democracies throughout the
world. Even the most democratic countries constantly face the
threat of corruption and the consequences of it at the polls. Why
are some governments more corrupt than others, even after
considering cultural, social, and political characteristics? In
Clarity of Responsibility, Accountability, and Corruption, the
authors argue that clarity of responsibility is critical for
reducing corruption in democracies. The authors provide a number of
empirical tests of this argument, including a cross-national
time-series statistical analysis to show that the higher the level
of clarity the lower the perceived corruption levels. Using survey
and experimental data, the authors show that clarity causes voters
to punish incumbents for corruption. Preliminary tests further
indicate that elites respond to these electoral incentives and are
more likely to combat corruption when clarity is high.
