| During the last four decades, many
developing countries have made significant improvements in the living standards of their citizens. Unfortunately, this movement toward higher levels of sustained economic development has not been universal. Most of Africa has remained essentially underdeveloped. Several constraints to development in the continent have been identified. Corruption, which is the subject of this book, is one of them. This book differs significantly from earlier efforts in that it
emphasizes the public choice approach to corruption cleanups as a more effective way to deal with this important development constraint. |
