Abstract

This research article tries to analyse the way corruption evolves and finds its fine tuning in developed countries around the world. Corruption represents a disease similar to a cancer that consumes organizations, entire societies, cultures or economic and political ideologies, all these being vital for the survival of the species in an almost normal social environment. Through this research the authors try to emphasize the true nature and relationship between corruption and social evolution and economic growth of a mature economy.
