A thorough and comprehensive analysis of corruption that occurs inside the purview of the public sector is depicted in this study, paying careful attention to the conceptual underpinnings and theoretical foundations of this phenomenon and putting an emphasis on its possible ramifications on the performance of the public administration, on the formulation of policies, and on society at large.
The paper explores the various manifestations of corruption within the public sector, the complexities associated with measuring corruption, and scrutinizes the governmental policies, strategies, and arrangements that aim at combating and preventing corruption in the public sector while also assessing their conformity with relevant global initiatives.
The debate on the common international measures, especially the ones that focus on corruption in the public sector, their presumed assumptions, and why they may not reflect the countries' performance, is raised. Hence, the paper adopts a thematic analysis methodology to put a hand on the dilemmatic perspective of the common measures of public sector corrupt behaviors and provides a diagramed manifestation that supports the understanding of the complexity of the correspondence between the efforts exerted for combating corruption as a global movement and the slight mirroring of such efforts in terms of improvements on the global measurement spectrums.
The paper proposes a clustered path to handling administrative corruption, taking the prospects of government policy intervention into proposed dialogues and remedy scenarios while following the global trend of not only combating but also preventing corruption.
