Corruption

About the Book

Corruption is present all over the world, but it is more endemic in some developing countries. This book helps readers to build up knowledge about corruption and to acquire skills, to combat corruption. It explores the causes of corruption, its effects on individual, on the society and on the nation; on the nature of corruption and its fundamental connections to the concepts of money, power, and justice—particularly as it affects the developing world. It offers suggestions about what can be done to prevent, minimise and eradicate corruption. Its distribution among local governing bodies is likely to have a great impact.
