Трансформация коррупционных отношений в постсоветской России
Terra Economicus. 2014. Т. 12. № 1. С. 25-31.
In our work, we distinguish two forms of corruption, market corruption and network corruption. Under the market corruption we understand the use of public office for personal gain, when every firm or individual who pays a bribe receives public services. Under the network corruption we understand the use of public office for personal gain, when only those firms or individuals who are in kinship, friendship or business relationships may receive public services. We find that in Russia takes place the transformation from market corruption to network corruption. We determine the time point of this shift and explain its causes.

Economists tend to reduce all corruption to impersonal market-like transactions, ignoring the role of social ties in shaping corruption. In this paper, we show that this simplification substantially limits the understanding of corruption. We distinguish between market corruption (impersonal bribery), and network (or parochial) corruption which is conditional on the social connections between bureaucrats and ...

Using World Values Survey data from several dozen countries around the world, this article analyzes the relationship between postmaterialist values and bribery (dis)approval in a multilevel framework. We find that people, who place stronger emphasis on postmaterialist values, tend to justify bribery more. However, the “ecological” effect of postmaterialism operates in the exactly opposite direction: ...

Few tasks are more important in the post-communist setting than rebuilding the welfare state. We study individual preferences for increasing social welfare spending to reduce inequality. Using two surveys of about 34,000 and 37,000 Russians we show great importance of the bridging type of social capital for redistribution preferences in Russia as it precludes possibilities ...

В статье выделены две формы коррупции — рыночная и сетевая. Под рыночной коррупцией понимается использование служебного положения в личных целях, когда каждый человек или фир- ма, кто платит взятку, может получить желаемую услугу; под сетевой — использование служебного положения в личных целях, когда только те фирмы или индивиды, которые состоят с чиновниками в родственных, дружеских ...

Сегодня «социальная картина» мало в чем изменилась. Мы видим результат «теневого права», как говорят - он «на лицо», что выражается в существенной трансформации социальных норм. Между тем, непримиримая борьба между «теневым» и позитивным правом продолжается. Несмотря на то, что многие граждане забыли не только о долге, но и о морали, о профессиональных традициях, в «силовых» ...

В любом государстве, как политической организации общества, главным является вопрос о власти, то есть в чьих руках она находится, какими методами, то есть способами она осуществляется? В чьих интересах? Каковы результаты этой деятельности? Однако наряду с таким цивилизованным инструментом в руках власти как право, с помощью которого закрепляются нормы-дефиниции и принципы права (общеправовые, межотраслевые и ...

The fight against corruption enjoys worldwide attention. But how do you measure corruption? Many social scientists rely on quantitative methods. But these have a weakness. They are blind to the particular social and local context in which people use informal practices. Also, not every informal action is corruption. In order to be able to precisely ...

The main goal of public procurement reform in Russia, initiated in 2005, was to prevent corrupt deals between suppliers and procurers. That is why the public procurement law favors formal mechanisms to govern most of the stages of procurement: the procurer is not allowed to take into account the reputation of the supplier when he ...

At its extreme, market corruption involves a free market for corrupt services, where anyone who pays a bribe gets access to an informal service. Network corruption provides access to corrupt services to a limited pool of individuals ...

Corrupt buyers and sellers of government services often face difficulties finding each other. Their activity is illegal, so one cannot just ask: "will you take my bribe?" or "how much will you give me if I accelerate this bureaucratic procedure?" Professional intermediaries help reveal this information. Sometimes intermediaries perform some legal functions too (e. g. ...

Why do people violate the law? The Hobbesian outlook would be that people violate the law in the absence of appropriate punishment. John Stuart Mill would have attributed the violation to the lack of incentives to behave legally. In this paper, we combine these two factors to examine the effect of antitrust regulation on price ...
