A companion volume to the International Handbook on the Economics
of Corruption published in 2006, the specially commissioned papers
in Volume Two present some of the best policy-oriented research in
the field. They stress the institutional roots of corruption and
include new research on topics ranging from corruption in
regulation and procurement to vote buying and private firm
payoffs.Understanding the consequences of corrupt transactions
requires one to know what is being bought with a bribe and how the
behavior of public and private actors has been affected. The
contributors therefore emphasize how the economic analysis of
corruption must take account of the broader context within which
bribery and self-dealing operate. Several chapters offer new
approaches to empirical research on corruption that range from
individual-level data to the macro-economy. Chapters with an
explicit policy focus deal with the efficacy of anti-corruption
agencies, multi-stakeholder initiatives, red flag warning systems
and international conventions. This cutting-edge work will be an
unmatched resource for scholars and students of corruption,
professionals in international aid and finance organizations, and
scholars and professionals with more general interests in economic
and political development. Contributors: T.S. Aidt, D.M. Aldrighi,
