This book is an important and very relevant study of corruption which is ever present in political life. Girling demonstrates that corruption does not disappear as countries develop and modernize, but rather that corruption takes on new forms.
Corruption arises from the collusion of economic and political elites, a practice that has developed in order to overcome the contradiction of two important processes of our time: capitalism and democracy. In this new study of the phenomenon, the author shows how corruption is the practice of collusion taken to excess; ''the unacceptable face of capitalism''. Corruption, by ''going too far'', exposes what is normally hidden from view; the collusive system of elites furthering the expansion of capitalist practice and market practice at the expense of democratic practice and public values.
