CONCLUDING REMARKS""; ""REFERENCES""This paper asks whether corruption might be the outcome of a lack of outside options for public officials or civil servants. We propose an occupational choice model embedded in an agency framework to address the issue. We show that technology-induced private sector expansion leads to a decline in publicly supplied corruption as it provides outside options to public officials who might otherwise engage in corruption. We provide empirical evidence that strongly shows that technology-induced private sector development is associated with a decline in aggregate corruption. This suggests that the decline in publicly supplied corruption outweighs the potential increase in privately supplied corruption that could result from private sector expansion.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2006/198CorruptionPolitical corruptionExports and ImportsimfLaborimfMacroeconomicsimfCriminologyimfBureaucracyimfAdministrative Processes in Public OrganizationsimfCorruptionimfHuman CapitalimfSkillsimfOccupational ChoiceimfLabor ProductivityimfPublic EnterprisesimfPublic-Private EnterprisesimfWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: GeneralimfInnovationimfResearch and DevelopmentimfTechnological ChangeimfIntellectual Property Rights: GeneralimfInternational InvestmentimfLong-term Capital MovementsimfCorporate crimeimfwhite-collar crimeimfCivil service & public sectorimfLabourimfincome economicsimfTechnologyimfgeneral issuesimfFinanceimfPublic sectorimfLabor shareimfForeign direct investmentimfFinance, PublicimfWagesimfInvestments, ForeignimfCorruption.Political corruption.Exports and ImportsLaborMacroeconomicsCriminologyBureaucracyAdministrative Processes in Public OrganizationsCorruptionHuman CapitalSkillsOccupational ChoiceLabor ProductivityPublic EnterprisesPublic-Private EnterprisesWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: GeneralInnovationResearch and DevelopmentTechnological ChangeIntellectual Property Rights: GeneralInternational InvestmentLong-term Capital MovementsCorporate crimewhite-collar crimeCivil service & public sectorLabourincome economicsTechnologygeneral issuesFinancePublic sectorLabor shareForeign direct investmentFinance, PublicWagesInvestments, ForeignRuhashyankiko Jean-François1546582Yehoue Etienne1160516DcWaIMFBOOK9910788696403321Corruption and Technology-Induced Private Sector Development3823292UNINA
