Given the adverse effects of corruption on society, economy, citizenship and civic life, the author illuminates upon a comprehensive understanding of the linkages involved in corruption processes and operations, and provides a strategic approach to curb this menace together with a methodology for ensuring graft-free delivery of public services. Not delineating corruption from the fabric of daily life, the discussion centres around a broad framework on how to go about addressing corruption from different perspectives-how the government should tackle it, what initiatives citizens and civil society should take and how the news media could explore a proactive and contributing role. In fact, the book says that the media is capable of covering corruption with a direct objective of curbing it. Thus, the fight against corruption has to be strategic, focused and multipronged. Good Governance talks about the pertinent problem of creating sustained public pressure for change, the emphasis being on the proactive need for change. 606 $aMunicipal services 606 $aMunicipal services$xLaw and legislation 606 $aCorporations$xCorrupt practices 606 $aOrganizational change 615 0$aMunicipal services. 615 0$aMunicipal services$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aCorporations$xCorrupt practices. 615 0$aOrganizational change. 676 $a363.6 700 $aBhaskara Rao$b N$g(Nagulapalli Bhaskara),$f1940-$01549889 702 $aSeth$b Kuldeep 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793269903321 996 $aSushasan$93808270 997 $aUNINA
