These countries, while continuing to experience challenges arising from corruption have made significant progress. This book identifies the institutions within each country that have taken the lead in reducing the impact of corruption and accounts for the factors - both technical and political - that have enabled these institutions to implement successful anti-corruption strategies. With the many examples of anti-corruption activities contained here, the research challenges the assumption that developing Global South economies are more corrupt than Western economies. Whether in the reform of legal and institutional frameworks, reports on prosecutions, or fraudulent cross-border activities the research throws up numerous examples of the international dimensions of corruption, particularly with respect to asset repatriation and money laundering. 650 0 $a Corruption $z Africa $x Case studies. 650 7 $a Corruption. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352550 651 7 $a Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239509 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 700 1 $a Koranteng, Roger Oppong, $e editor. 710 2 $a Commonwealth Secretariat. 856 40 $3 University of Alberta Access $u https://doi.org/10.14217/d28da3df-en $z from Commonwealth iLibrary 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013640.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0A5E3C620CF611EA99B9112E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
