Standard anticorruption interventions consist of intensified monitoring and sanctioning. Rooted in principal‐agent theory, these interventions are based on the assumption that corrupt acts follow a rational cost‐benefit calculation by gain‐seeking individuals. Given their mixed results, however, these interventions require closer scrutiny. Building on goal‐framing theory, the authors argue that rule compliance requires a salient normative goal frame, since monitoring can never be perfect. Being inherently brittle, it needs constant reinforcement through external cues operating alongside formal monitoring and sanctioning. Leaders and peers setting a good example can provide such cues. In line with this hypothesis, analysis of multilevel repeated measures data from a vignette study of 580 Indonesian senior civil servants shows that the perceived likelihood of a hypothetical civil servant accepting a bribe is lowest when monitoring and sanctioning are strong and when leaders and peers are known to have refused bribes in the past.

In order to reveal the importance of informal communication, the article compares a rural (as a source of tradition) and a current city employment community. The comparison showed that in the context of informal networks of the traditional communities and of urban collaborators, social relationships formed reciprocity (help), mutual trust, the differences between these communities, local dimension (as economic -rural community and culture of the organization -the city), and the fact that in the rural community, unstressed time (duration, frequency), is assumed as long-term and steady, while in urban communities there is an emic point of view. The gender aspect aspect was not highlighted. SaNTrauKaStraipsnyje nagrinėjami darbo bendrijų neformalieji tinklai socialinių santykių aspektu. Siekdami atskleisti neformaliųjų ryšių reikšmę darbo kolektyve, socialinių santykių aspektu iš laiko perspektyvos lyginsime kaimo (kaip tradicijos šaltinio) ir dabartines miesto darbo bendrijas. palyginimas parodė, kad darbo kontekste neformalių tinklų tradicinės bendruomenės ir miesto bendradarbių socialinius santykius formavo abipusiškumas (pagalba), tarpusavio pasitikėjimas. Skiriasi šių bendruomenių vietos aspektas (kaip ekonominis -kaimo bendrijoje ir organizacijos kultūros -miesto) ir tai, kad kaimo bendrijoje neakcentuotas laikas (trukmė, dažnumas), kuris numanomas kaip ilgalaikis, pastovus, o miesto bendrijoje emic požiūriu nebuvo išskirtas lyties aspektas, kuris, manyčiau, taip pat nutylimas kaip savaime suprantamas.

“…We embarked on this line of research to better understand the organizational requisites necessary to sustain high rates of innovative change in organizations and in their products/services/activities (a concern of many sociologists, for example, Kuipers 2009). Sociologists have long recognized that ability to innovate is often associated with long-term organizational success (e.g., Pfeffer 1994).…”

We offer initial proof for a "contrast of paired cases" method for arriving at statistically reliable insights about innovation, which, our data demonstrated, has the potential for being generalized to many types of organizations, rather than being restricted to organizations of a particular size, type, or sector. Our method relied on making sure respondents drew sharp contrasts between two different organizations with which they were intimately familiar. We analyzed the results of 165 different paired contrasts. Patterns emerged which were statistically significant and generally consistent with case literature on organizations. The proof we offer for this "paired cases contrast" method, if found generalizable to a larger sample of organizations, offers a cost-effective approach to organizational research. Very importantly, the method works even in the absence of metric scales for comparing widely varied organizations and overcomes the problem of intercoder reliability in the process.
