Jongseok Woo and Eunjung Choi use a cross-national lens to analyze how political corruption influences different areas of politics and economics, including electoral outcomes, citizens' evaluations of democratic norms and values, economic development, distributional justice, and social and political trust in both developed and developing nations. While most works on political corruption focus on the causes of corruption, this book delves into various consequences of it. The discussion in each chapter engages both theoretical and empirical components of political corruption, introducing competing theoretical arguments on a given topic and puts them under rigorous empirical scrutiny. Each chapter involves large-N statistical analysis to make it truly global in scope and to overcome the limits of single (or small-N) case studies on political corruption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWoo and Choi provide a valuable and comprehensive empirical analysis of political corruption and the book is set to become a core text in the literature on corruption studies * South African Journal of International Affairs *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: Political Corruption in Contemporary Politics\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: Political Corruption from a Global Perspective\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Political Corruption and Economic Growth\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Political Corruption, Economic Liberalization, and Distributive Justice\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Political Corruption and Electoral Outcomes\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Corruption, Trust, and Democracy\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Political Corruption and Democratic Governance","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040733069655,"sku":"9781498541893","price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781498541893.jpg?v=1750947660","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/political-corruption-and-democratic-governance-9781498541893","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
