Tackling Corruption in Latin America : An Institutional Approach Hardback
by Guillaume Fontaine, Alejandro Hernandez-Luis, Taymi Milan, Carlos Rodrigues de Caires
Part of the Political Corruption and Governance series
Hardback
Description
This book examines anti-corruption policies in Latin America.
It compares best practices in public procurement and state budgets in order to provide new insights into policy design for governments, civil society organisations and international organisations engaged in the fight against corruption.
The book assesses how a paradigm shift toward transparency in global governance has led to major changes in public policies in the region since the late 1990s.
Using Uruguay and Chile as case studies, it then demonstrates the causal mechanisms linking transparency institutionalisation to corruption control.
The book also offers recommendations for research and practice about the importance of coherent public accountability systems, that combine citizen oversight over government with government responsibility towards non-state actors.
It will appeal to scholars and students of public policy, public administration and governance in Latin America, as well as those interested in political corruption.
