Abstract

In the current debate on democracy backsliding, corruption has been understudied. We know little about the role corruption plays in Hungary and Poland, or how it obstructs the consolidation of democracy from Albania to Peru, or even if corruption harms democracies more than it does autocracies. This panel invites quantitative and qualitative approaches to convey the answers to these questions.
