Abstract

Purpose - – The paper aims to investigate the connection between corruption and ethnic polarization and religious fractionalization. Design/methodology/approach - – Analysis of variance and regression expectation models were used to identify groups of countries for their similarities and differences. Findings - – Results show that significant statistical differences exist between the countries grouped by human development, income and developing countries. Countries with expectations higher or lower than the norm in corruption were identified. Originality/value - – The paper highlights the connection between corruption and ethnicity for some 127 countries.
