RT Article T1 Corruption control JF Crime, law and social change VO 66 IS 2 SP 147 OP 163 A1 Moene, Karl Ove A2 Søreide, Tina 1973- LA English YR 2016 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1853786683 AB How can we explain why countries that apply similar remedies against corruption vary so much in their actual incidence of corruption? While high penalties for business crime may prevent corruption in some situations, it may exacerbate the problem in others. We find enforcement of laws against corruption to depend on the form of cooperation between layers of law enforcement authority in the state administration. Small local differences in honesty and cooperation may lead to large differences in effective law enforcement and in actual levels of corruption.
