Contents: Preface. 1. Understanding corruption. 2. Challenging the conventional wisdom. 3. Fighting corruption: the new agenda. Conclusion. Glossary of Nepali words. Index. Corruption is often studied in a legal perspective. Delineating corruption as primarily an organisational problem The Invisible Office presents it in a managerial perspective. It challenges the conventional wisdom about confronting corruption and offers a people centred solution to the problem. Rather than wasting our hard acquired resources in checks controls and costly overhead structures we need to use them for creating normal working conditions inter alia fair compensation judiciously triaged procedures and reasonably open career opportunities where normal people do not breach trust and where those who do are quickly identified and conveniently brought to book. It also demonstrates the power of democracy to take on corruption. Instead of tinkering with popular institutions of authority we need to do everything possible to make sure that our electoral process is reliably fair and our elective offices are widely visible. 237 pp.
