In order to do so, a rationalist perspective is taken. The author argues that donors perform well in fighting corruption when they cooperate - in forming an international regime. Based on three documents of OECD/DAC, possible principles, rules and norms of such a regime are elaborated. By examining policy papers of three bilateral donors (United States Agency for International Development, UK Department for International Development, Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency), the author seeks to 606 $aAdministrative agencies$xCorrupt practices$xPrevention 615 0$aAdministrative agencies$xCorrupt practices$xPrevention. 676 $a364.132 700 $aSeidler$b Christoph$01811000 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955471803321 996 $aAgencies and policies$94362588 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04299nam 2200709Ia 450 001 9910826608603321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786613204820 010 $a9781444323269 010 $a1444323261 010 $a9781283204828 010 $a1283204827 010 $a9781444323252 010 $a1444323253 035 $a(CKB)2480000000008434 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH4285530 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000429763 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11289070 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000429763 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10451907 035 $a(PQKB)10971834 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC530056 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL530056 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10383578 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL320482 035 $a(OCoLC)630541297 035 $a(Perlego)2786313 035 $a(EXLCZ)992480000000008434 100 $a20100108d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aTime matters $egeology's legacy to scientific thought /$fMichael Leddra 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aHoboken, NJ $cWiley$d2010 215 $a1 online resource (xviii, 269 p. )$cill., ports 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9781405199094 311 08$a1405199091 311 08$a9781405199087 311 08$a1405199083 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPreface.
