dc.description.abstract | We question the received wisdom on the role f corruption in economic development and economic reform. We do so by treating corruption as a by-product of bureaucratic institutions. We distinguish the roles played by corruption prereform and during reform. We show that a one-time corruption is a catalyst for reform by providing incentives for the bureaucrats in power to accede to reform and to dissolve the class of bureaucrats. Thus, a one-time surge of corruption can be a prelude to a permanently reduced level of corruption in the future. | en_US |
