Abstract

When and how do politicians incorporate (anti-) corruption in their narratives? To what extent corruption is driven by the concentration of power in one political party? In which settings corruption is more likely to reduce trust and cooperation levels? Scholars included in this panel reflect on links and possible corrosive effects of corruption and the intricate relationship between corruption and trust, honesty, power and political rhetoric. Papers bring both theoretically and empirically contributions, through the help of different methodological lenses.
