Description
This Routledge volume offers a provocative anthropological examination of the relationship between corruption and law, challenging the conventional view that treats them as simple opposites. The authors argue that corruption and law are inextricably linked, with the possibility of corruption already embedded within legal systems themselves. Rather than accepting the normative good governance frameworks promoted by institutions like Transparency International and the World Bank, this work takes a critical stance toward anti-corruption programs that oversimplify corruption as an absolute evil. By exploring the hidden continuities between these two phenomena, the book reveals how closer examination of corruption's relationship to law reshapes our understanding of both legal systems and social order. This text is essential for scholars, students, and professionals in anthropology, law, sociology, and development studies who seek a nuanced perspective beyond mainstream anti-corruption discourse.

Key Features

Challenges normative good governance agendas by examining the inextricable link between corruption and legal systems.

Part of the Law, Justice and Power series, positioning the work within established scholarly frameworks in legal anthropology.
