The expert authors in this timely volume offer diverse perspectives
on how corruption distorts state and market relations, while
drawing from insights in political science, economics, and law.
This book represents a new wave of research in political economy,
relying on methodological rigor to address topics ranging from
corruption in taxation and trade to crony capitalism and false
anti-corruption reforms. Key chapters provide a thorough review of
the literature on links between political connections and
democratic institutions. Special attention is paid to the OECD
Anti-Bribery Convention, the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act,
China's anti-corruption drive, and language used to discuss tax
evasion. Case studies from various regions-such as China, Paraguay,
South Africa, and New York City-anchor the analysis with real-world
situations. Greed, Corruption, and the Modern State is a critical
resource for students, researchers, and practitioners interested in
development, economics, governance, and corruption. Contributors:
