It argues that the definition of corruption is an evolving one. As the nature of the state changes, so too does the type of corruption. New evidence is presented on the early institutional development of the state. Irish public life was motivated by an ethos which rejected patronage. Original research provides fresh insights into how the policies of economic protectionalism and discretionary decision making led to eight Tribunal inquires. 606 $aPolitical corruption$zIreland 607 $aIreland$xPolitics and government$y1949- 607 $aIreland$xPolitics and government$y1922-1949 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolitical corruption 676 $a941.70824 700 $aByrne$b Elaine A.$01043364 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461029003321 996 $aPolitical corruption in Ireland 1922-2010$92468287 997 $aUNINA
