Corruption - Global Threat to Human Security

  • General Medicine

Abstract Corruption is a pervasive, highly topical, interdisciplinary social phenomenon that manifests itself globally, with regional specificities. It is a broad and complex concern whose manifestations and dynamics such as bribery, misappropriation of public funds through lack of transparency and integrity, nepotism, illegal and unfair access to positions of interest have devastating effects on economic and political instability and prevent or slow down economic growth or block competitive environments. The hypothesis is woven around the phenomenon of corruption seen not only as a question of legality but also of ethics, both institutional and personal. The present article proposes a perspective that goes beyond the purely theoretical sphere, problematising issues of current interest. The theoretical-empirical complementarity offers a complex perspective through the qualitative-quantitative alternations and the examples chosen.
