The Concept of Political Corruption: Lessons from a Lost Epoch

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article revises the concept of political corruption by bringing a fresh perspective to prebehavioral scholarship. It acknowledges prior scholarship but also recognizes its limitations. By refuting the assertion that early twentieth-century conceptions are irrelevant, understanding of political corruption and public integrity can be enhanced.
