Fighting corruption throughout history from ancient times to the modern era

This is the second part of the book "Fighting Corruption Throughout History: From Ancient Times to the Modern Era." And the book in its two parts is characterized by a broad and deep comparative vision - in terms of time and place - allowing it to monitor and analyze corruption in several European countries and others, so that it presents a variety of major questions that research often neglects, including the qualitative variation between types of corruption or between corruption problems: Instead of arranging societies according to a one-dimensional numerical measure, what do we see when we look at the tangible contradictions that reflect long-term effects? The isolation of government from politics, as if that were possible, has been a standard for many reformers since the late 19th century; but this book (in its two parts) shows that when measures against corruption - or even efforts to define different behaviors as corrupt - are effective, they are supported by a set of political interests and groups that have something at stake.
