| Summary |
"Corruption within government is a worldwide problem. Policing Corruption presents insight from police practitioners and scholars on the nature and extent of this epidemic in both more- and less-developed countries in all regions of the globe. Editors Rick Sarre, Dilip K. Das, and H. J. Albrecht and notable contributors shed light on the conditions under which corruption flourishes and its far-reaching consequences for individuals' safety and freedom, as well as each nation's security, economy, and sovereignty. This volume also presents innovative anticorruption strategies to be undertaken by governments, international organizations, and the media. Devoting special attention to malpractice within police forces, Policing Corruption is an important resource for all who work to prevent and undo corruption and its debilitating effects."--BOOK JACKET |
