Description

Reviews

During the last forty years, most countries in Africa have failed to make any significant improvements in the standard of living of their citizens. One of the most important reasons advanced to explain continued poverty and deprivation in the continent is pervasive corruption. Corruption, the subject of this book, has become quite pervasive in Africa and now constitutes an important development constraint. This book, however, differs significantly from previous efforts in that it emphasizes the public choice perspective to corruption cleanups and thus, also presents the international dimension of corruption along with global efforts to tackle the problem.

"… Mbaku highlights the public choice perspective to corruption and analyzes the international dimensions shaping the problem. An excellent book for students in international studies." -- The Gaither Reporter, Nov./Dec. 2000, Volume 4, Number 7
