Public corruption is viewed generally like an obstacle that stops equitable existence of developing countries. In many nations, corruption has been termed as an evil that bites to death. Many humanitarian organizations and aid systems as well as donor-states have distinct directives to deal with this problem in the society. In nations that have intensified occurrences of corruption, perceptions have been developed that corruption is pervasive and with immense benefits. The western nations perceive corruption with innate benefits to the involved people. While not being something to reckon in the society, corruption has destroyed many structural features of development in developing and developed nations (Gray and Daniel Kaufmann, 1998).
In many societies, the concept of corruption is a new happening that has escalated within the universal avenues of human and property management and growth in the society. It becomes abundantly possible to have attitudinal scales of managing human behaviors while engaging in public property. Public corruption is a facet that has come to the society because of the human greed for success and acquisition. I belief that there are several avenues of human governance that do not need to make use of corruption. According to Alatas, (1999) the society has undergone rudimentary transformations that are related to how human beings interact with one another and with the property. There has arisen the idea of public property...
The stake owns a property that there is opportunities and usability for common good in the society. Nonetheless, human use of unscrupulous ways and means of acquiring such properties and services rests in the acts of public corruption.
The modern society has come under criticism for failing to offer equitable avenues of guarding human nature against the act of corruption. In most cases, it has become exceedingly hard to have all the necessary perimeters of justice done without having to neglect on rudimentary and sophisticated cases of corruption. In many modern societies, public corruption is viewed as a common act that is protected by the present avenues of laws and regulations. The western society is perceived as a common avenue that has resulted in the generation of public corruption. For instance, cases of stolen public property are common among the western societies. These societies do not have the innate and traditional avenues through which people are able to shun acts of public corruption. Therefore, corruption has been perceived as a common endeavor that is allowable only by the human desires. There are no direct avenues of fighting corruption. The remaining options rest on the fact that human property is to be protected by the personal members of the society.
Many traditional establishments have differed understanding of what entails civil responsibilities and responsible etiquette in the society. Corruption has the consequences that result in death of sheer destruction of the avenues of growth and development in the society. The social and political stratifications have been designed in a manner that they are appreciating the influences of corruption among the people in the society. I agree with the fact that the modern society suffers and…

Corruption Anti-Corruption No one is immune from the power of corruption. Of course there are orders of magnitude and people can be corrupted in little ways that do not seem to matter, but many times the people that are corrupted are the very ones who are supposed to be manning the public trust. The very people citizens hope are the most incorruptible are, unfortunately, the most susceptible. Lord Acton said that "Power
Corruption in government is considered by nearly every society as a destructive force. Most view corruption as having a negative impact on a nation's commerce and as a source of social injustice. The lack of accountability by those in authority is considered to be a contributing cause of corruption. The lack of accountability is present in governments where the ruling authorities are afforded considerable discretion such as authoritarian style governments
In China, at the same time (Kahn makes some interesting observation regarding these two case studies), corruption also seems to not have hampered too much the development and growth of the country. There are macroeconomic explanations for this. The influx of foreign investments was strongly encouraged by the creation of economic zones such as that around Shanghai with preferential conditions for business. Corruption was not an obstacle here, perhaps also

On the one hand, some members of the public view the whistleblower as an important player in the maintenance of public service offices and agencies.
