Corruption is a recent addition to this agenda. Corruption is by no means a new issue, but it has only recently emerged as a global issue. With the end of the Cold War, the pace and breadth of democratization and international economic integration have accelerated and expanded. Yet, in some parts of the world, corruption threatens to slow or even reverse these trends.
This volume is based on a conference held by the Institute for International Economics.
