Four Fridays for Corruption: A Mini Online Workshop Series on Corruption, Rent-Seeking Behaviour and Informal Practices in Institutional Contexts
Venue: Online
Dates: every Friday in November 2020 (November 6, 13, 20, 27)
Organisers: Institute for International Management (Loughborough University London); Centre for Political Economy and Institutional Studies (Birkbeck University of London); Centre for Comparative Studies of Emerging Economies (University College London)
Overview
This mini-series of online workshops aims to bring together researchers from different disciplines to improve our theoretical, empirical and methodological understanding of different aspects of corruption, rent-seeking behaviours, and informal practices within different institutional contexts.
This workshop aims to provide an ad-hoc research platform to further this debate. We are interested in work that sheds light on corruption and other forms of rent-seeking behaviours within different institutional and socio-cultural contexts from a broad and interdisciplinary perspective. The workshop also aims to explore different aspects of informality, the complementarities existing between informal practices and different forms of institutions, and the relational mechanisms linking informal practices and corruption.
