| Summary |
"Case studies from New York, Hong Kong, and La Paz, Bolivia, show how seemingly hopeless problems can become the catalysts of successful reform. Corrupt Cities details how to diagnose municipal corruption; involve citizens and government employees in finding and implementing workable solutions; attack corruption from an economic approach - as a crime of calculation and as a function of corrupt systems rather than (just) corrupt individuals; cure and prevent corruption by adapting proven methods and reforms to your community; and avoid common pitfalls."--BOOK JACKET |
