Abstract
"The recognition that progress in fighting corruption requires measurement of corruption in order to diagnose problems and monitor results has sparked debate on how best to measure corruption and monitor progress in reducing it. In this context, some popular notions are commonly espoused that either lack clarity or are not backed up by rigorous analysis or evidence. In this article we highlight some of the main issues, in the form of six myths and their associated realities, and conclude by pointing to some brief implications for the private sector’s role in fighting corruption."(pg 318)
