“…Namely, corruption resulted in inefficient operations, impaired accountability, poor performance and lack of transparency. This could have ripple effects beyond the food system, creating barriers to addressing climate change, for example by undermining equitable access to funds and infrastructure made available to support adaptation to climate change [ 80 , 81 ]. Corruption also undermined food safety: in some cases, failed health inspections were dismissed or food production had decreased input quality (e.g., seeds, chemical fertilizers, and pesticides were below acceptable standards), and surveillance was relaxed to conceal substandard food practices [ 21 , 50 , 82 , 83 ].…”

Background Corruption exists at all levels of our global society and is a potential threat to food security, food safety, equity, and social justice. However, there is a knowledge gap in the role and impact of corruption within the context of the global food system. We aimed to systematically review empirical literature focused on corruption in the global food system to examine how it is characterized, the actors involved, its potential impacts, and the solutions that have been proposed to address corruption in the food system. Methods We used a systematic scoping review methodology. Terms combining corruption and the food system were searched in Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycInfo and Econlit, in October 2021. Two screeners applied a priori selection criteria to screen the articles at the title and abstract and full-text levels. Data was extracted into a charting form and thematically synthesized to describe the types of corruption in the food system, the actors involved, how corruption impacts the food system, and potential solutions. Sankey diagrams and narrative summaries were developed to summarize the included studies and findings. Results From the 238 included records, five main types of corruption were identified in the global food system: bureaucratic corruption, fraud, bribery, organized crime, and corporate political activity. These different types of corruption spanned across various food system areas, from policy and governance structures to food environments, and involved a wide range of actors. More powerful actors like those in public and private sectors tended to instigate corruption in the food system, while community members and primary producers tended to be impacted by it. The impacts of corruption were mostly negative and corruption was found to undermine food system governance and regulatory structures; threaten health, safety, and food security; and lead or contribute to environmental degradation, economic loss, erosion of trust, social inequities, and decreased agricultural productivity. While solution-oriented literature was limited, the essential role of strong governance, use of technology and predictive modelling methods to improve detection of corruption, and organizational approaches to problem solving were identified. Conclusion Our review findings provide researchers and policymakers with a comprehensive overview of corruption in the global food system, providing insights to inform a more holistic approach to addressing the issue. Addressing corruption in the food system is an essential element of supporting the transition to a more healthy, equitable and sustainable global food system.

With the rapid development of climate change adaptation over recent decades, a considerable amount of evidence has been collected on maladaptation associated with climate change adaptation initiatives, particularly in terms of risk transfer and risk substitution. Increasing our understanding of maladaptation is important for avoiding negative outcomes of adaptation project implementation. However, maladaptation has received limited research attention. Previous research has focused on frameworks that can assist in defining and avoiding maladaptive risk and be applied to adaptation initiative planning processes. Adaptation may cause more significant influences on spatial land change than the direct effect of climate change does. Identifying the adaptation consequences that are likely to result in maladaptation is crucial. A combination of spatial land analysis and climate change analysis can be used for the aforementioned identification. However, empirical case studies on methods that can assess and evaluate the risk of maladaptation by integrating spatial and temporal aspects in a land spatial modeling tool have not been conducted. The present study aimed to fill this research gap by exploring the existing knowledge on maladaptation to climate change. We examined the interaction among spatial analysis, evaluated maladaptation frameworks, and project design to extend our conceptual understanding on maladaptation to climate change. We adopted a systematic review method that involved considering several questions including the following: (a) What are the definitions and categories of maladaptation? (b) What methods and theoretical frameworks exist for the assessment and evaluation of maladaptive risk? (c) How have climate-related research communities considered issues of maladaptation? (d) What are the experimental studies on land use change that can be referred to for minimizing maladaptive risks in future adaptation planning? In conclusion, further research on maladaptation should integrate spatial land analysis methods to facilitate the identification and avoidance of maladaptive risk in the initial stage of adaptation planning.

“…Os estudos qualitativos, em sua maioria, utilizaram entrevistas (39), grupo focal (17) e pesquisa documental. As entrevistas foram conduzidas com agentes públicos; investigadores; burocratas de rua, como policiais, e até com integrantes do alto escalão dos governos, além de cidadãos e agentes privados, tais como os empresários (Peacock & Cordner, 2016;Zhu & Jiao, 2012;Lin, 1995;Kopytko, 2016;Chen, Li, & Wang, 2010;Gong & Zhou, 2015) O estudo de Jancsics e Jávór (2012), por exemplo, realizou 45 entrevistas com membros de diversas organizações de Budapeste, na Hungria, que estiveram envolvidos em esquemas de corrupção. O estudo de Škrbec & Dobovšek (2013) envolveu uma série de agentes públicos, sendo que, ao todo, foram conduzidas 45 entrevistas com diferentes agentes envolvidos com o tema corrupção na Eslovênia: policiais, juízes, promotores de justiça, professores e pesquisadores, representantes de agências de combate à corrupção, jornalistas e membros de órgãos de controle do governo.…”

A corrupção no setor público está presente em todos os países do mundo, desde os países desenvolvidos até os mais pobres. Entender como esse fenômeno ocorre em diferentes países é fundamental para o surgimento de mecanismos efetivos de combate à corrupção e o fortalecimento da democracia. Nesse sentido, este estudo buscou responder a seguinte questão: Como o tema da corrupção na Administração Pública vem sendo debatido na literatura internacional? Para isso utilizou-se análise de conteúdo e revisão sistemática da literatura. Ao todo foram analisadas 211 produções internacionais entre artigos teóricos e empíricos que tratam da corrupção em 141 países do mundo. Os resultados apontam para um campo de estudo em crescimento, com uma diversidade de métodos e técnicas de pesquisa divididos entre estudos qualitativos e quantitativos. Os temas em destaque são as reformas contra a corrupção no mundo, as causas e consequências da corrupção e as formas de medir a corrupção. Ao final do artigo é oferecida uma agenda para estudos futuros em relação ao tema.
