Anti-corruption in a discordant world
The turbulent contemporary practice of anti-corruption
Anti-corruption in a discordant world
Main content
Populist and illiberal leaders hijack anti-corruption to target opponents, restrict media and civil society, or even legitimise authoritarian rule. However, new forms of collective action and technology are emerging to forge novel paths forward.
As the UN Convention against Corruption celebrates 20 years, there could be a sense that anti-corruption discourses, policies, and practices are settling into a stable, consensus-driven phase. The new book, Anti-corruption in a discordant world: contestation, abuse and innovation, argues they are not.
Selected authors will provide perspectives from around the world, from Russia to Latin America.
What innovative tools are emerging to tackle one of the world’s most pressing problems?
