Abstract
This paper draws on the available interdisciplinary literature on corruption. We describe corruption as a highly complex phenomenon, which includes heterogeneous elements with nontrivial relationships, unpredictable evolution and changing dynamics. We conclude that anticorruption efforts must be aware of this complexity and include the needed governance instruments. Self-regulation, transparency and ethics re called on to play a fundamental role.
