Elgar Research Agendas

Edited by Alina Mungiu-Pippidi, Director of the European Research Centre for Anti-Corruption and State-Building (ERCAS), Hertie School, Berlin, Germany and Paul M. Heywood, Sir Francis Hill Professor of European Politics, University of Nottingham, UK

This interdisciplinary Research Agenda contains state-of-the-art surveys of the field of corruption and points towards an agenda for future research. This comprehensive work covers the main approaches to diagnosing, analysing and measuring corruption, as well as the ways to tackle it. Chapters explore top political and grassroots corruption, buying and stealing votes, corruption in relation to gender and the media, digital anti-corruption and an examination of whistleblowing and market-based tools.

‘The editors, contributors and publisher of this book must be congratulated for this excellent work for the benefit of the global research community.’

'Corruption studies is enjoying a renaissance right now, which is no surprise given the urgent need to find more effective ways to fight it. Alina Mungiu-Pippidi and Paul Heywood have brought together an impressive and eclectic group of authors to help set out what a new research agenda on corruption might look like, and everyone in the field will benefit from reading it.'
– Heather Marquette, University of Birmingham, UK

‘This volume is a fine collection of results and perspectives on corruption, and helps readers find coherence across disciplines through the lens of political science.’
– Tina Søreide, Norwegian School of Economics, Norway

‘Like the reform movement itself, corruption research needs a reboot. Mungiu-Pippidi and Heywood have assembled a provocative collection that questions old assumptions and takes a fresh look at unresolved issues. Several chapters examine the dynamics of corrupt processes as they fit into broader realities. Concluding chapters examine reforms and reformers themselves, developing propositions about the best way forward.’
– Michael Johnston, Colgate University, US

‘A Research Agenda for Studies of Corruption collects in one volume the latest thinking about corruption and how to tame it. It is a valuable addition to the literature that will be of use to scholars and policymakers alike.’
– Rick Messick, The Global Anticorruption Blog
