Political development and corruption: why 'right here, right now!'? / Sarah Bracking -- The limits of a global campaign against corruption / Kalin S. Ivanov -- Ecomonic models of corruption / Vincent G. Fitzsimons -- Tickling donors and tackling opponents: the anti-corruption campaign in Malawi / David Hall-Matthews -- Corruption and reform in Nigeria / Paul Okojie and Abubakar Momoh -- Challenges to the Philippine culture of corruption / Edna Estifania A. Co -- Challenges of anti-corruption policies in post-communist countries / Anastassiya Zagainova -- Political corruption in Georgia / Nina Dadalauri -- Corruption scandals andanti-corruption institution building interventions in Jamaica / PhilipDuku Osei -- Governance, neoliberalism, and corruption in Nicaragua / Ed Brown, Jonathan Cloke, and Josâe Luis Rocha -- Fighting public sector corruption in Ghana: does gender matter? / Namawu Alhassan Alolo -- Upgrading democracy in Mozambique: the question of party and election finance / Bruno Wilhelm Speck -- Accountability in development finance projects: between the market and asoft place / Sarah Bracking -- Why anti-corruption initiatives fail: technology transfer and contextual collision / Richard Heeks -- Strengthening checks and balances in financial governance: the evolving role of multiculutural banks in Latin America / Carlos Santiso.

Since the 1990s, anti-corruption discourse and policy has become an unquestioned moral crusade, but campaigns that focus on eliminating corruption often have negative effects for good governance and political cultures across the developing world. This collection critically examines policy andpractice in the field of corruption and anti-corruption, interrogating development assistance policyfor anti-corruption as well as the implementation, meanings and practicies of policy across a rangeof case studies. Exploring the ways that corruption is addressed across Africa, Asia, Latin Americaand East & Central Europe, the book argues that a single-minded focus on corruption within the development industry precludes more substantive political programmes, such as democratization. It examinesthe implicit agendas that anti-corruption campaigns serve - the assumption of Northern supremacy - and places the debate onpolitical corruption in historical perspective, highlighting the racialized framing of the problem. The problematizing of government policieson corruption and the deconstruction of the discourse of the global anti-corruption campaigns also shed light on the nature of the development industry as a whole. Includes a Foreword by Deryck Brown, Commonwealth Secretariat, UK.
