An argument for reframing debates about corruption : insights from Papua New Guinea

Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
It is difficult to identify the way scholars and policy-makers understand corruption in the country. The article categorises perspectives of corruption that are found in academic and policy accounts of PNG. This literature is marked by an over-reliance on mainstream Western interpretations of the definition, causes and solutions to corruption. It is argued that there is an important role that critical and culturally aware academics can play in reframing debates about corruption in PNG and the Pacific.
