“…It is possible to think a third approach to enforcement from the competition structure of the market (Svensson, 2005). It is argued that if all companies competed in a free market, due to the pressures exerted by competition, the profits of companies would decrease, leaving no room for bribe payments (Otáhal, 2014). In this sense, studies show that there are higher levels of bribery payments in countries with low levels of competition or with greater government intervention in the economy (Clarke & Xu, 2004).…”

Context: in the administration literature, it is possible to identify several occurrences of the term enforcement, mainly related to studies of corruption. These mentions, however, are not uniform and often refer to different types of the phenomenon. In addition, they occur without connection to regulation studies, in which enforcement is a central concept. Objective: the objective of the present study is to identify the types of anti-corruption enforcement present in the administration literature in the light of the regulatory literature. Methods: we carried out a reflective thematic analysis on 31 articles in the administration area, selected in the Web of Knowledge database and published until 2017, in which corruption and enforcement appear in a related way. Results: at the end of the analysis, it was possible to identify four types of occurrence of the term in the literature: punitive, market, competitive, and cultural enforcement. These four types have unique characteristics in the light of the regulatory literature. Conclusions: the identification of types of anti-corruption enforcement contributes to differentiate the many ways in which the term is used in the literature. Furthermore, as a study of a typological nature, it offers a way to develop new theories, as well as to carry out empirical studies.

“…É possível conceber uma terceira abordagem para o enforcement a partir da estrutura de competição do mercado (Svensson, 2005). Argumenta-se que se todas as empresas competissem em um livre mercado, em função das pressões exercidas pela concorrência, os lucros das empresas diminuiriam, fazendo com que não houvesse espaço para pagamento de propinas (Otáhal, 2014). Nesse sentido, os estudos mostram que há maiores níveis de pagamento de propinas em países com baixos níveis de competição ou com maior intervenção do governo na economia (Clarke & Xu, 2004).…”

“…Druhým předpokladem je pak skutečně aktivní kooperace alespoň části politických lídrů (Rothstein 2007;Mungiu-Pippidi 2006), kteří se stanou součástí jakési "povstalecké armády", složené z těch, kteří korupcí ztrácejí, namířené vůči predátorským skupinám (Mungiu-Pippidi 2006: 96-98), a prosadí systémové řešení shora. Otáhal (2014) naopak na základě von Misesových a von Hayekových konceptů vidí recept na řešení korupce v podstatném převedení veřejného vlastnictví ve prospěch soukromého, které omezuje tzv. dobývání renty.…”

Systémová korupce jako empirický výzkum: případ města Liberec

Systemic corruption is not a failure of individuals, i.e. the result of their deviant behaviour, but a collective phenomenon shared mainly by public institutions as a whole. The phenomenon is based on an effort to establish a new set of corrupt norms inside such institutions affecting policymaking, administrative procedures, public procurements, and the behavior of employees etc. In spite of the fact that impacts of systemic corruption on the areas of government, civil freedoms, social cohesion, and public economy are well known, there is very little practical research involving concrete evidence of systemic corruption in particular cases. This paper attempts to clarify how to generate a set of indicators of systemic corruption and then identify and verify them in a real-life political environment – in our specific case, the administration and policymaking of Liberec City Council between 1998 and 2010. The research was based upon elaborated interviews (with politicians, public servants, prosecuting authorities etc.), document analysis (reports and papers of the city council and municipal government, contracts and invoices etc.), and political and media analysis. The results are significant, as only an understanding of how a corrupt system really works can lead to the implementation of suitable anticorruption measures.
