Political corruption : a handbook

The editors of this volume approached their work with a number of explicit goals: first, to compile a definitive selection of the most important literature in this rapidly developing field; second, to demonstrate important developments and continuities in the past 20 years; and third, to provide a resource for future comparative or cross-national research. Most of their selections have been published in the last 15 years; some were written especially for this volume. Scholars from all social science disciplines are represented, including law, history, sociology and communications, as well as political science. Cumulatively, the book combines descriptive richness, analytical thrust, conceptual awareness, and contextual articulation
