This edited volume provides original research and innovative analysis on corruption and anti-corruption in countries and regions of the Global South. It brings together economists, social and political scientists, and international relations, law, public policy and management scholars working on and from different regions of the Global South in a discussion of the empirical, comparative, and theoretical aspects of corruption and anti-corruption. By reflecting on a variety of experiences, theories, and methodologies, this collective effort responds to the call to decolonise social sciences and democratise the dialogue between policymakers, practitioners, and the general public.
