Corruption and democratisation

Alan Doig, Robin Theobald

"The last five years have seen a tremendous upsurge of interest in and concern about the problem of political corruption. At both national and international levels major initiatives continue to be launched by both governmental and non-governmental agencies. A prominent concern has been with democracy and the development of a strong civil society. The papers here collected examine in a range of national contexts the relationship between democratisation and the task of combating corruption. Do the two processes complement each other or are they ultimately in conflict?"--Jacket.
