This book systematically explores the relationship between party
funding and corruption, and addresses fundamental concerns in the
continued consideration of how democracy should function. The book
analyses whether parties funded primarily through private donations
are necessarily more corrupt than those funded by the state, and
whether different types of corruption are evident in different
funding regimes. Drawing on a comparison of Great Britain and
Denmark, the author argues that levels of state subsidy are, in
fact, unrelated to the type of corruption found. Subsidies are not
a cure for corruption or, importantly, perceived corruption, so if
they are to be introduced or sustained, this should be done for
other reasons. Subsidies can, for example, be justified on grounds
of public utility. Meanwhile, anti-corruption measures should focus
on other regulations, but even then we should not expect such
measures to impact on perceptions of corruption in the short term.
