MITO I KORUPCIJA ČINE LOŠU PERSPEKTIVU ZA DRUŠTVO U CJELINI
BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION LEAD TO A BAD OUTLOOK FOR SOCIETY AS A WHOLE

Summary/Abstract: Corruption weakens public trust in democratic institutions. It undermines the legitimacy of a country. Corruption also makes the population helpless against organized crime. It limits the access to public services. It frustrates involvement of people in entrepreneurship and obstructs the main opportunity for escaping poverty. Corruption reduces the attractiveness of a country and it reduces foreign investment influx. It increases investment risks and in the same way the investment rate. Corruption is not only morally wrong but is also one of the causes of government inefficiency at all levels. Corruption devastates everything: institutions, the economy, morals and the overall development of society. Corruption is a serious social, political and economic problem. It expands especially where there is least social stability. Corruption is reduced as a result of systematic implementation of measures for the stabilization of social relations. Simultaneously very moderate repressive mechanisms are used in controlling corruption. The fight against corruption is impossible to lead if the government is not at its forefront. This is because only the government possesses the levers with which it can influence this fight.
