Corruption - a scandalous word that elicits the listener’s interest the moment it is uttered. Despite how ubiquitous it is in our modern understanding of our world, corruption is still a deeply misunderstood topic. Due to this general ignorance, those who practice it are able to getaway while the rest of us are left trying to grasp what exactly corruption is.What needs to be understood is that corruption is a system - it does not arise out of a vacuum. We all hate it and wish to blame someone or something for causing it, but it isn’t always as simple as that. Structural reasons encourage people to indulge in corrupt behavior, which is why corruption takes on so many different forms depending on the location.We will explore these structural reasons in this book with the help of my experience in the finance and consultancy sectors, both of which are particularly rife with corruption, in India and Australia. Through this retelling, you will see that no geographic boundaries or cultural phenomenon prevent or encourage corruption. Rather, they only make corruption take on different forms. Corruption itself remains.
