Strong civil societies play a major role in controlling corruption
in many societies, and reformers agree that citizens, both
individual and organized, should be involved in reform. But
accomplishing that goal has proven difficult. Some civil societies
are weak, divided, and impoverished. In others, undemocratic
regimes dominate through intimidation. And in still others,
development difficulties, international debt, and misguided aid
efforts stop reform before it can begin. Too often, anti-corruption
campaigns do not engage social values or attack corruption as
people experience it every day. This volume, based on a yearlong
series of events sponsored by Colgate University's Center for
Ethics and World Societies, analyzes civil society and corruption
from several perspectives and in several parts of the world. One
section considers corruption as a fact of everyday life, a second
analyzes techniques and incentives involved in mobilizing civil
society, and a third provides a unique guide to information
resources on corruption and reform.
