Reviews
This timely and provocative book will disrupt current debates on corruption and reform in useful ways. It takes up new and important issues such as populism and legal corruption in the context of cases that have long deserved more scholarly attention, yet likes them effectively to longer-standing theories and concepts. Populists and international aid programs are shown to require fresh and careful thought. The language and appearances associated with corruption issues are considered in innovative ways. Corruption scholarship and reform thinking, seemingly frozen in time for a generation, are beginning to move in new directions, and this book will give those trends added impetus. Michael Johnston Charles A. Dana Professor of Political Science, Emeritus Colgate University
