Transparency, Incentives and Prevention (Tip) for Corruption Control and Good Governance

By Kaufmann, Daniel

Description
Economics

Excerpt
The graduation from the ?awareness-raising stage? in anti-corruption to a concrete action-oriented phase too often has led to a plethora of legal drafting initiatives, changes in internal accountability mechanisms or administrative rules, or focus on enforcement issues on their own. This has been at the expense of prevention within a systemic or incentives-driven approach to institutional change. Based on empirical analysis of experiences of industrialized, transition and emerging economies, we argue on the importance of transparency, incentives and prevention (TIP) in improving governance and addressing corruption. In moving towards an integrated TIP -driven corruption control approach, the importance of broadening the approach to focus on Governance is emphasized. Within it, control of corruption is one important component, closely linked to others, such as rule of law, external accountability, voice, and transparency. Worldwide indicators on such multi-pronged measures of governance are now available, as well as approaches to generate detailed in-country governance diagnostics and monitoring. They in turn are key inputs to a strategy of transparency and incentive-based anti-corruption reforms. Salient findings are presented, suggesting the value of prevention strategies in controlling corruption for increasing welfare of the poor and for enterprise development. These empirical diagnostics tools also assist in the identification of country-specific priorities for institutional change. Yet these advances in protransparency approaches can only provide major concrete benefits where complemented by leadership, proper enforcement, and collective involvement of key stakeholders in society for implementing institutional change.
