Klappentext Based on two international conferences at Princeton University and the Central European University, this is a handy guide to the problem of corruption in transition countries, with an important comparative content. Political Corruption in Transition is distinguished from similar publications by at least two features: by the quality of the carefully selected and edited essays ans by its original treatment. Instead of the usual preaching and excommunications, this Skeptic`s Handbook represents down-to-earth realism. Combines general issues with case studies and original research. The geographic coverage is wide, though it is ideas rather than a geography that drive the volume`s organization. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction: from corruption to extortion; Part 1. Understanding and misunderstanding corruption; Part 2: corruption as politics; Part 3: corruption and economy; bibliography.
