Using a mix of ethnographic, survey, and comparative historical
methodologies, this book offers an unprecedented insight into the
corruption economies of Ukrainian and Belarusian universities,
hospitals, and secondary schools. Its detailed analysis suggests
that political turnover in hybrid political regimes has a strong
impact on petty economic crime in service-provision bureaucracies.
Theoretically, the book rejects the dominant paradigm that
attributes corruption to the allegedly ongoing political
transition. Instead, it develops a more nuanced approach that
appreciates the complexity of corruption economies in non-Western
societies, embraces the local meanings and functions of corruption,
and recognizes the stability of new post-transitional regimes in
Eastern Europe and beyond. This book offers a critical look at the
social costs of transparency, develops a blueprint for a 'sociology
of corruption', and offers concrete and feasible policy
recommendations. It will appeal to scholars across the social
sciences, policymakers and a variety of anti-corruption and social
justice activists.
