Reviews
"This book represents a useful and affordable addition to any anti-corruption collection or library. It builds upon existing work of political scientists and economists who have focused on the political economy of corruption." -- Adam Masters, Economic Record"The importance of understanding corruption has never been so important as right now. This is the new go-to book on the topic." - Tyler Cowen, Professor of economics, GMU "To tackle corruption we need to recognize that it is a symptom of a society in which incentives are distorted, control mechanisms are absent and norms are mis-calibrated. Anyone planning to delve into these issues would be well served by first studying what Fisman and Golden have to say." - Daron Acemoglu, co-author of Why Nations Fail and professor of economics, MIT, "This book represents a useful and affordable addition to any anti-corruption collection or library.

Synopsis
Corruption regularly makes front page headlines: public officials embezzling government monies, selling public offices, and trading bribes for favors to private companies generate public indignation and calls for reform. In Corruption: What Everyone Needs to Know®, renowned scholars Ray Fisman and Miriam A. Golden provide a deeper understanding of why corruption is so damaging politically, socially, and economically. Among the key questions examined are: is corruption the result of perverse economic incentives? Does it stem from differences in culture and tolerance for illicit acts of government officials? Why don't voters throw corrupt politicians out of office? Vivid examples from a wide range of countries and situations shed light on the causes of corruption, and how it can be combated., Corruption regularly makes front page headlines: public officials embezzling government monies, selling public offices, and trading bribes for favors to private companies generate public indignation and calls for reform.

- l***0 (112)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThese sellers must be pros. I ordered a signed 1st/1st, and very much appreciated that it arrived as if it had been sent to me by one of the indies from which I order collectible editions. Not only was the shipping fast, the packing was outstanding — a sturdy cardboard envelope in which the book was wrapped in both plastic and paper. I could not be more pleased and will happily recommend this seller to others. Thank you, Turgid Tomes.Memorial Days: A Memoir - SIGNED (#167473421884)
