Anticorruption reform in a setting of widespread corruption -- - Corruption and anticorruption reform in Hong Kong -- - An explosion of corruption in mainland China -- - Problems of routine anticorruption enforcement -- - Anticorruption campaigns as enforcement mechanisms -- - Institutional designs for clean government
"This book contrasts the experiences of mainland China and Hong Kong to explore the pressing question of how governments can transform a culture of widespread corruption to one of clean government. Melanie Manion examines Hong Kong as the best example of the possibility of reform. Within a few years it achieved a spectacularly successful conversion to clean government. Mainland China illustrates the difficulty of reform. Despite more than two decades of anticorruption reform, corruption in China continues to spread essentially unabated."--Jacket
