Tummala. 520 $a This edited collection examines corruption in the public sector, assessing original research studies from across the globe in order to provide an international perspective on this global issue. These studies include an examination of how corruption has been minimized in Singapore and Hong Kong; an assessment of corruption in India under Modi, who was elected on a promise to reduce corruption; a study of corruption in Bangladesh, and an evaluation of attempts to curb corruption in South Africa. This collection also includes a comparative study of corruption in Brazil and Chile, and a global perspective on the development of ethical privacy policies in e-government. The original case studies included in this book are brought together in an effort to identify common themes that impinge upon the fight against corruption, despite the particular nuances of individual nations. The contributions included in this edited collection also cover themes that are not often studied, including corruption in government procurement, the nascent issue of the 'right to privacy' stemming from e-governance, and the proclivity of governments to hide behind Official Secrets Acts to withhold information - ostensibly guaranteed under the 'right to information' which is vital in the fight against corruption. Providing a broad overview on public sector corruption, including local and national perspectives, this edited collection is essential reading for scholars of both public policy and corruption worldwide. 540 $a British Library not licensed to copy $c 0. $5 Uk 650 0 $a Administrative agencies $x Corrupt practices. 650 0 $a Civil service ethics. 650 7 $a Civil service & public sector. $2 bicssc 650 7 $a Political Science, Corruption & Misconduct. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Administrative agencies $x Corrupt practices. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00796744 650 7 $a Civil service ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862847 700 1 $a Tummala, Krishna K., $e editor. 776 08 $c Original $z 1839096438 $z 1839096438 $w (OCoLC)1222798901 830 0 $a Public policy and governance ; $v 34. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526014714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8EC828FE323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
