Abstract

In India, a need for a more value-based bureaucracy is being felt and expressed in view of the growing trend of corruption cases and the continuing failure of the existing system in arresting this trend. The need seems to have emerged from an assumption that there is a definite relationship between the personal values and corruption permissiveness of an individual. The existing literature, however, hardly contains any direct evidence in the support of this assumption. This gap has profound practical and theoretical implications; therefore, this paper examines the assumption with a view to fill the gap. It also explores the possibility that the financial condition of the family of government servants moderates this relationship. The paper found significant evidence in support of both assumptions.
