Corruption and Development Aid: Confronting the Challenges
(Georg Cremer, 2008)
Although corruption has always been a quietly recognized aspect of development aid programs, the taboo against openly discussing it is only now being widely overcome. Georg Cremer systematically addresses the subject, exploring the nature and impact of corruption, the conditions under which it is most likely to take hold, and the strategies that can enable aid organizations, both NGOs and those in the state sector, to limit the risk.
International Handbook on the Economics of Corruption (flyer - pdf)
(Susan Rose-Ackerman (Ed.)-2006)
Economic research on corruption aims both to isolate the economic effects of quid
pro quo deals between agents and third parties, and to suggest how legal and
institutional reforms might curb harms and enhance benefits. In this comprehensive
Handbook, top scholars in the field provide specially commissioned essays, both
theoretical and empirical, exploring both types of research. |
