What is corruption, how can it be measured, and why do citizens tolerate it? When can it be reduced, and why do reforms so often fail?

This volume offers a clear and analytically grounded guide to corruption in contemporary politics. It moves from definitions and measurement to explanations of persistence, before analysing its effects on governance, development, and social trust. Drawing on diverse empirical research, it treats corruption as a structural feature of the relationship between public authority and private interest across different regimes.

The book combines comparative scope with theoretical pluralism, engaging principal-agent, collective action, and institutional perspectives. It examines how elections, digital technologies, and state capture shape corruption, and why anti-corruption reforms frequently fail or produce unintended outcomes.

Aimed at students and broader audience as well as practitioners, it presents corruption as a fundamentally political issue of power and accountability. Who benefits, who bears the costs, and what would it take to achieve genuine accountability remain central concerns in an era of democratic strain and inequality.
