Presents Anti-Corruption Strategy
USAID
presented its new Anticorruption Strategy at the International
Anti-Corruption Forum hosted by the USAID funded Americas’
Accountability Anti-Corruption Project. The new strategy
incorporates four broad approaches that will assist USAID
to better address the development challenge posed by corruption:
1) confront the dual challenges of grand and administrative
corruption; 2) deploy USAID resources to fight corruption
in strategic ways; 3) incorporate anticorruption goals and
activities across USAID work; and 4) build USAID’s
body of anti-corruption knowledge.

and Integrity Improvement Initiatives In Developing Countries
offers views of eminent international thinkers and practitioners
on how to reduce and eventually eliminate corruption.
The book shows that, while helpful, democracy is by no means
a cure for corruption, nor is economic liberalisation a
panacea for ending public sector crime. The contributors
call for strategies that combine law enforcement, prevention
through institutional reforms and public support. A strong
correlation between successful anti-corruption programmes
and civil liberties is demonstrated throughout the book.

- The
Role of a National Integrity System in Fighting Corruption.
By P. Langseth, R. Stapenhurst, and J. Pope (35 pages, 1997).
A "national integrity system" is proposed as a
comprehensive method of fighting corruption. It comprises
eight pillars (public awareness, public anti-corruption
strategies, public participation, "watchdog" agencies,
the judiciary, the media, the private sector, and international
cooperation) which are interdependent. Establishing and
strengthening such an integrity system requires identifying
opportunities for reinforcing and utilizing each of these
pillars in the fight against corruption.

- Pillars
of Integrity: The Importance of Supreme Audit Institutions,
in Curbing Corruption
by K. Dye and R. Stapenhurst (34 pages, 1998) Building strong
institutions is a central challenge of development and is
key to controlling corruption. Among public institutions,
the Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) play a critical role,
as they help promote sound financial management and thus
accountable and transparent government. However, the full
potential of the SAI to address corruption has not been
exploited, in part because of the lack of understanding
of the overall capacity of the SAI. This paper discusses
the role of SAIs in promoting accountability and transparency
within government, considers some of the factors making
for effective SAIs and highlights the linkages between the
audit institutions and other "pillars of integrity,"
notably the media and Parliament.
