Productbeschrijving

Corruption! Corruption!! Corruption!!! Wherever you turn people are talking about corruption. Corruption is prevalent in society. It is seen in the high corridors of power, among the movers and shakers of society, it is present in business; it is also present among the so-called "common" people.

What is corruption?

Corruption has been defined in many ways.

A simple definition given in the Oxford dictionary is, "widespread moral deterioration."

The classic definition, followed by the World Bank and Transparency International, views corruption as "the use of one's public position for illegitimate private gains."

Information International based in Lebanon adopted the following definition:

"Corruption is the behavior of private individuals or public officials who deviate from set responsibilities and use their position of power in order to serve private ends and secure private gains." (Lebanon Anti-Corruption Initiative Report 1999).

The UN's Global Programme against Corruption defines corruption as the "abuse of power for private gain" and includes thereby both the public and private sector.
