Controlling Society/ Controlling the State: Crime and Corruption With a Focus on Mexico = Проблемы контроля в обществе и в государстве: преступность и коррупция на примере Мексики

Abstract

This paper explores the intersection of crime and corruption, drawing on the Mexican case for examples and discussion. After defining and differentiating the two concepts to broadly encompass violations of the rule of law by citizens (crime) and state officials (corruption), the paper reviews the handful of empirical studies exploring the crime-corruption linkage
