Beschreibung:
Mark A. Zupan examines why, how, where, and when government insiders subvert the public interest, undermining democracies as well as autocracies.
Much attention has been paid to the negative effects of government outsiders - such as special interest groups - influencing government agencies and officials. In this book, Mark A. Zupan addresses the equally important phenomenon of government insiders influencing the machinery of the state and putting their interests above the public interest.
