Corruption in Contemporary Politics : A New Travel Guide, Hardback Book

Corruption in Contemporary Politics : A New Travel Guide Hardback

Hardback

Description

Recognising that corruption is a serious problem in the globalised world of the early twenty-first century, the book takes the reader on a journey – beginning with what corruption is, why its study is important and how it can be measured.

From there it moves on to explore corruption’s causes, its consequences and how it can be tackled – before discovering how these things are playing out in the established liberal democracies, in the former communist regimes and in the newly industrialised and ‘developing’ world.

On the way it takes a couple of detours – first, to explore corruption’s mechanisms and dynamics and second to survey the scandals to which it may give rise.

The book is therefore offered as an informative ‘travel guide’ of potential interest to journalists and policy makers as well as to students and academics. -- .
