Material type: ArticlePublisher: Oxford : Blackwell Publishers Limited, December 1996Australian Journal of Public Administration 55, 4, p. 22-29Abstract: As a new world economy emerges what is being learned about the accompanying phenomenon of administrative corruption?To probe this question we combine study of current developments in China with prevailing theories of corruption. The administrative corruption experience, as is has unfolded during the economic development thrust of the Deng reform era, is describe and analysed in a comparative contex. In specifically interjecting the American experience we suggest that a balanced control response to corruption - rather than an elimination focus - could be a fruitful avenue for policy and research, and that informal, social approaches to corruption control are pregnant with possibilities. China's experience offers a sig-nificant opportunity to push the margin of wisdom on these issues as they relate to economic and political developmentAs a new world economy emerges what is being learned about the accompanying phenomenon of administrative corruption?To probe this question we combine study of current developments in China with prevailing theories of corruption.
