Is Corruption Curable?
Autor Khalid Sekkaten Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 sep 2018
This book explores how corruption is now widely recognized as a major “disease” which threatens not only economic development but also the foundations of societies. As well as examining the causes and consequences of corruption, this book also offers a deep analysis of possible cures. It discusses the solutions that have been adopted in different countries and at the international level in order to curb corruption. Previous analyses have focused mainly on the causes and consequences of corruption but by analysing the different solutions that have been adopted around the world, and the reason of their successes or failures, this book seeks to help national and international policy makers in setting an effective anti-corruption strategy.

Caracteristici
Explores how politics, justice, media and education constitute the main components of an effective anti-corruption strategy Uses examples to show how some countries which were previously among the most corrupt are now among the least corrupt Draws on formal economic studies (including theoretical and empirical models), but is non-technical in order to allow the reader understanding the problem without specific knowledge in mathematics or econometrics
