Discover a groundbreaking Social Contract Approach to controlling corruption in CONTROLLING CORRUPTION by The Bookish Owl. This essential read challenges conventional anti-corruption strategies, highlighting why decades of international efforts have yielded disappointing results. The author argues that corruption is often misconceptualized, misplaced in the wrong social arenas, and based on flawed principal-agent theories. By reconceptualizing corruption and introducing a novel social contract-based theory, this book offers a fresh perspective and practical solutions. Explore the ‘indirect approach’ through compelling empirical cases, from religious practices to education and gender equality, providing a strategic framework to understand and combat corruption effectively. An indispensable resource for policymakers, academics, and anyone concerned with societal well-being.
