"Anti-Corruption in a Discordant World offers a realist’s perspective on global corruption, arguing against ‘toolkits’ and quick-fix reforms by showing that progress against corruption will entail prolonged contestation, clear understanding of how power is abused, and reform innovations rather than revisiting ‘best practices’ that may not be appropriate everywhere. The book arrives at the right time: if the US is stepping back from the fight against global corruption, these voices from many parts of the world deserve our close attention."Michael Johnston, Emeritus Charles A. Dana Professor of Political Science, Colgate University, USA"This timely and incisive volume unpacks the messy realities of anti-corruption, posing urgent questions about who benefits from anti-corruption efforts and how new ideas emerge in adverse conditions. Essential reading for scholars and development professionals alike."Fahmida Khatun, Executive Director at Centre for Policy Dialogue, Bangladesh"For the world to be a better place, the fight against corruption is a fight that must be sustained and won. Anti-Corruption in a Discordant World presents lucid and scholarly interrogations of the many faces of corruption and shows how to combat it."Emmanuel Oladipo Ojo, Associate Professor at Ekiti State University, Nigeria"Anti-Corruption in a Discordant World is a timely volume moving away from prescriptive accounts of what anti-corruption is in an ideal world by looking at it as it is in a complex and messy world. This allows the readers to reflect on real-life problems through an illuminating conceptual frame. This book will surely contribute to better anti-corruption policies in their diverse contexts."Mihály Fazekas, Professor at Department of Public Policy at Central European University, Austria
