Part One: Reading.
(14 pts) A/ Comprehension and Interpretation. (07 pts) Read the text carefully and do the activities. Corruption has been defined in many different ways, each lacking in some aspect. A few years ago, the question of definition absorbed a large proportion of the time spent on discussions of corruption at conferences and meetings. However, like an elephant, even though it might be difficult to describe, it is generally not difficult to recognise when observed. In most cases, though not all, different observers would agree on whether a particular behaviour connotes corruption. Unfortunately, the behaviour is often difficult to observe directly because, typically, acts of corruption do not take place in broad daylight.

The most popular and simplest definition of corruption is that it is the abuse of public power for private benefit. From this definition, it should not be concluded that corruption cannot exist within private sector activities. Especially in large private enterprises, this phenomenon clearly exists, as for example, in procurement or even in recruitment. In several cases of corruption, the abuse of public power is not necessarily for one’s private benefit or one’s party, class, tribe, friends, family, and so on. In fact, in many countries some of the proceeds of corruption go to finance the political parties. Not all acts of corruption result in the payment of bribes. For example, a public employee who claims to be sick but goes on vacation is abusing his public position for personal use. Thus, he is engaging in an act of corruption even though no bribe is paid. It is important to distinguish bribes from gifts. In many instances, bribes can be disguised as gifts. A bribe implies reciprocity while a gift should not. However, even though the distinction is fundamental, the identification of a bribe may not always be simple. Adapted from “Corruption Around the World” by Vito Tanzi, May 1998 1.
