Corruption, a big society problem

The dictionary defines corrupt to change from good to bad in morals, manners, or actions; to become tainted or rotten.

There are three issues that we can realize that are over corruption, one of the journals tell us about the corruption and poverty, the other one tell us of the cost of the corruption in higher education and the last one who cares corruption.

These three themes are similar because they all speak a little bit about the corruption at different levels, as we see the first article tells us that poverty is linked to corruption as this is a serious violation of human rights and tells us how people are afraid to express themselves and think that there will be the reprisals against them.

On the other hand, the other article talks about  the extent of corruption in higher education, citing student surveys in six countries - the Kyrgyz Republic, Kazakhstan, Croatia, Moldova, Serbia and Bulgaria. These studies suggest that corruption varies according to market demand for the subject matter, with higher frequencies of corruption in the areas of greatest demand.

Finally this article tells us how corruption has a large impact on foreign direct investment (FDI). Also about the laws against bribery abroad may act as a deterrent against engaging in corruption in foreign countries.

The three journals are very interesting and they all tell us about the gravity of this problem, we all have to start making conscious.
