This volume investigates the efficacy, unintended consequences, and institutional dynamics of global anti-corruption campaigns led by governments and non-governmental organizations. The editors, Barry Hindess, Luís de Sousa, and Peter Larmour, curate a collection of essays from various political scientists to examine how anti-corruption doctrines are implemented, franchised, and sometimes weaponized across diverse political landscapes. The text argues that while these initiatives aim to promote integrity, they often interact with local power structures in ways that can undermine democratic processes or serve as instruments of political control.
