A groundbreaking examination of the ways that concern about corruption undermines government effectiveness
In this comprehensive and controversial case study of anticorruption efforts, Frank Anechiarico and James B. Jacobs show how the proliferating regulations and oversight mechanisms designed to prevent or root out corruption seriously undermine our ability to govern. By constraining decision makers' discretion, shaping priorities, and causing delays, corruption control―no less than corruption itself―has contributed to the contemporary crisis in public administration.
