Description

Class Experience

We will be examining corruption and corruption reform. We will start by defining and explaining the concept. We will then discuss the many ways in which it is known to hinder countries. We will look at the history of corruption reform, spending some time on successful corruption reform programs in places like Hong Kong and Singapore.

This class is taught in English.

Students will learn what corruption is, what its effects are, and the recent history of corruption reform.

My Ph.D. dissertation was on corruption reform in highly corrupt countries. Additionally, I worked on contract as a 'senior knowledge manager' with NATO, where I published multiple articles on corruption in crisis areas such as Afghanistan.

45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

We will be referencing the international anti-corruption NGO, Transparency International.
