Alberto Vannucci

In the last decades a growing awareness emerged of the relevance of corruption as an hidden factor which may negatively affect political and economic decision-making processes. In spite of a lively scientific debate there is no general consensus on a commonly accepted definition of what corruption is. The A. distinguishes three main paradigms, focusing on different (though not irreconcilable) variables. The first is the economic paradigm, which usually takes the principal-agent model of corruption as its founding pillar. In this paradigm corruption is considered the outcome of rational individual choices, and its spread within a certain organization is influenced by the factors defining the structure of expected costs and rewards. A second approach-the cultural paradigm-looks at the differences in cultural traditions, social norms and interiorized values which shape individuals' moral preferences and consideration of his social and institutional role. These are a leading forces ...

TheJournalish: Social and Government

Oluwatobi Adeyemi

This paper examines the theories and conceptual definitions of corruption. It explores the manifestation of corruption in both developed and developing countries. Methodologically, the paper adopted a qualitative research technique of data collection through the content analysis of empirical studies conducted by classical and contemporary scholars. Some of the theoretical thrusts in the analysis of corruption in this work are the Idealist, Functionalist theories and Political economy approach. After thorough and careful assessment of the scholarly views on corruption, the paper discovered that the menace of corruption also manifest in developed countries but it is more acute in developing countries of the world Keywords: Corruption, theory, developed countries, developing countries

Discussion of the definition of corruption has progressed little since Heidenheimer's groundbreaking distinction between definitions centred on public opinion, public office and public interest. All these definitions have been severely criticised. I suggest that underneath these traditional concepts of corruption lurks a much older one based on distributive justice – namely the ‘impartiality principle’, whereby a state ought to treat equally those who deserve equally. This principle provides a much more plausible reason for why the public condemns corruption than alternative approaches, and, moreover, it is recognised fairly universally: the implicit distinction between ‘public’ and ‘private’ is certainly neither as ‘modern’ nor as ‘Western’ as many have claimed. The universality of the principle of impartiality does not imply universality of its content: who deserves equally, or, alternatively, on which grounds discrimination is ruled out, will be answered differently at different periods in time and will vary from society to society. The impartiality principle provides a starting point for the discussion of both corruption in ‘traditional’ societies and contemporary political corruption – corruption involving violations of specific non-discrimination norms governing the access to the political process and the allocation of rights and resources. The impartiality principle calls for rule-bound administration and thus underpins the public office definition of corruption. A central element of the analysis of corruption is the study of specific non-discrimination norms and their comparison across time and place. This approach leads to a significant enrichment of the concept of corruption.

Luís de Sousa

Although there is fairly general agreement that corruption is a trans-systemic phenomenon endemic to all societies, regimes, and countries, and salient in different periods of the history of mankind, the study of corruption reveals a weaker consensus as to its definition, measurement, and explanation. Empirical studies constantly are faced with three major issues that may hinder further comparative understanding of the phenomenon. First, corruption lacks a precise definition or agreement upon its meaning. Like many other concepts in social sciences, corruption is volatile and subject to historical, social, and cultural connotations. Second, corruption is susceptible to variations across time and space. Its measurement, both in terms of volume as well as the standards qualifying that form of behavior, is prior to any attempt at explaining how the phenomenon expands, grows and mutates contextually. Third, without clearing the first two methodological steps, the empirical testing of a derived hypothesis is bound to show rather limited or disputed results.

This paper critically reviews the main approaches used to construct an explanation of corruption, fleshing out their main underlying assumptions, contributions and limitations, and how these translate into practice within anti-corruption reform.

This article aims to give an overview of the accumulated discussions about corruption, identifying and gathering its main occurrences in scientific research. The texts found during the literature review process reveal the heterogeneous and asymmetrical character of scientific literature on the subject. From the scarce or barely existing number of articles devoted exclusively to the literature review on corruption to the multitude of texts that tackle its causes, effects and perception, the subject is approached with different interests in the scientific community. This article aims to contribute to Public Administration studies by identifying the senses of research on corruption and organizing them into six groups or thematic axes.
