“…Taagepera's conclusions were especially up to date on the eve of the accession of the Baltic states to the EU (Taagepera 2002). Also, before the great 2004 enlargement of the EU, a group of researchers showed, through the example of Latvia, how the existing corruption practices had negatively affected the economic development of that country (King et al 2004).…”

The aim of the article is to present the authors’ assessment of the effectiveness of the anti-corruption policy in Latvia, to establish the compliance of national anti-corruption strategies with the EU goals in terms of preventing and combating corruption. The research methods aim at confirming a hypothesis that in order to deepen anti-corruption reforms and strengthen resilience in the fight against corruption, it is not enough for Latvia to conduct only institutional reforms, but it is important to promote anti-corruption values. The study is based on the methodology of new institutionalism and axiological analysis. The authors argue that if the role of non-democratic values is significant, it will slow down the progressive institutional reforms needed to bring Latvia’s anti-corruption policies fully in line with EU development strategies.

“…Although seemingly a departure from past work, in fact it is her way of understanding the necessary conditions for both reproduction of city economies, and the planners and national government economic regulators that put the former at risk (Lawrence, 1989, pages 238^239). Not widely appreciated (but see Glaeser, 2000), it has been used in public policy (for example, Kushner and Rachlis, 1994) and in corruption studies (for example, King et al, 2004). I have found it indispensable for exploring the relations between cities and states (Taylor, 2006a;2006b).…”

This appears to be a`solution' described in the Buchanan Report. (2) These contain all her ideas that make her such an influential writer. There is another book (Jacobs, 1980) that deals with a specific topic (Quebec separatism) and derives from radio lectures she was invited to do by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. These ideas are explored more generally in Jacobs (1984). Her other few publications are similarly more fully fleshed out in the six books. An early book chapter (Jacobs, 1957) led on to the project that produced Death and Life; a rare journal article (Jacobs, 1969b) reprises the message of Jacobs (1969a); and of her three chapters in Lawrence (1989), two (Jacobs, 1989a; are introducing ideas that came to fruition in Jacobs (1992), and one returns to ideas in Jacobs (1984). She also edited her aunt's memoir on frontier life in Alaska (Allen, 1997, page 147).
