Join us for our Library Athenaeum at 1pm on Wednesday, November 7th. Hamid Yeganeh, Assistant Professor, Business/Management will present "Can God Save us from Corruption? A Cross-National Investigation
into the Effects of Religiosity on the Occurrence of Corrupt Business
Behavior"
Summary
Corruption is a globally pervasive phenomenon that impedes
economic development and prosperity, hampers international trade, and erodes the
social order, peace, and stability. Relying on data drawn from more than seventy
eight countries, I examine the effects of religiosity, religious denominations,
and communist heritage on the pervasiveness of corrupt business behavior. My
analyses confirm that even after controlling for the effects of socio–economic
development, religiosity and communist heritage tend to promote corruption. I
discuss the nature of corrupt business behavior and speculate about the social
and managerial implications.
The Library Athenaeum is located on the second floor of the Krueger Library, Minnesota bluff side.
