Hosszú leírás:
The Handbook on the Geographies of Corruption is a comprehensive overview of corruption, exploring the immense variation of corruption among nations, and how this reflects levels of wealth, the centralization of power, colonial legacies, and different national cultures.
In this Handbook, Barney Warf brings together a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary collection of original new chapters from established researchers and leading academics to examine corruption from a spatial perspective. The Handbook opens with a series of thematic chapters on the causes and consequences of corruption, its geography, the connection between corruption and gender, and the role of e-government in mitigating current corruption issues. Further chapters offer a series of national case studies, on countries including Mexico, Brazil, South Africa, Turkey, Russia, Pakistan, China, Indonesia, Ukraine, Bangladesh, and the Philippines from which to draw lessons.
This Handbook will be a valuable read for human geography scholars and corruption researchers, wishing to gain a more in depth understanding of how and why corruption levels differ across the world. Practitioners concerned with combatting corruption would also greatly benefit from reading this given its real-world insights.

The Handbook on the Geographies of Corruption offers a comprehensive overview of how corruption varies across the globe. It explores the immense range of corruption among countries, and how this reflects levels of wealth, the centralization of power, colonial legacies, and different national cultures. Barney Warf presents an original and interdisciplinary collection of chapters from established researchers and leading academics that examine corruption from a spatial perspective.
'Corruption occurs at multiple scales and in different forms. The 21 chapters by international scholars examine corruption and e-government, development, and gender and accounts of 16 countries/regions including China, Russia, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, Indonesia, Pakistan, the Arab World, and Central Asia. A timely and insightful book for seminars, workshops and policymakers.'
--Stanley D. Brunn, Professor Emeritus, University of Kentucky, US
'In this important book Barney Warf has assembled an impressive array of papers on the intricacies of corruption in its many forms across the globe. The chapters, empirically rich and conceptually sophisticated, open up new ground that is long overdue. Finally, this crucial topic gets a nuanced, robust airing that social scientists and policy analysts will deeply appreciate.'
--David Wilson, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US
