Outsourcing of Corruption: Indias Counterdevelopment Chapter uri icon

abstract

  • Brij Mohan 2015. Corruption has long been widely pervasive in many developing countries, and even developed countries have not been entirely immune to it. It continues to grow like a cancer-rapidly and in all directions: horizontal, transverse, and vertical. Corruption erodes the very foun dation upon which developing countries aspire to develop. The wide spread of corruption is, in many ways, a reflection of the political paradigm a country is governed by. This chapter discusses corruption, which seems to be getting ingrained in the social and political fabric of developing countries, with particular reference to Uttar Pradesh, India. It illustrat.es the spread of corruption by discussing several real-world examples and raises questions as to what should be done to curb or mitigate it.
