Summary:
This pamphlet focuses exclusively on corrupt public practices. It lists the potential causes and consequences of public corruption and presents recent evidence on the extent to which corruption affects investment, economic growth, and government expenditure choices. The evidence presented here suggests that corruption may have cosiderable adverse effects on economic growth by reducing private investment and perhaps by worsening the composition of public expenditure.
