“…Corruption is an illegal activity carried out for private gain and benefit, by misuse of authority or power by public (government) or private (company) officeholders [1]. Different types of corruption are documented in the literature and include public corruption [2], private corruption [3], pervasive corruption, and arbitrary corruption [4].…”

In this paper, a nonlinear deterministic model for the dynamics of corruption is proposed and analysed qualitatively using the stability theory of differential equations. The basic reproduction number with respect to the corruption-free equilibrium is obtained using next-generation matrix method. The conditions for local and global asymptotic stability of corruption-free and endemic equilibria are established. From the analysis using center manifold theory, the model exhibits forward bifurcation. Then, the model was extended by reformulating it as an optimal control problem, with the use of two time-dependent controls to assess the impact of corruption on human population, namely, campaigning about corruption through media and advertisement and exposing corrupted individuals to jail and giving punishment. By using Pontryagin’s maximum principle, necessary conditions for the optimal control of the transmission of corruption were derived. From the numerical simulation, it was found that the integrated control strategy must be taken to fight against corruption.

“…Literature reviews can be broadly classified based on two main parameters: (1) the approach to the review (systematic, semi‐systematic or integrative (Snyder, 2019); and (2) the focus of the review (domains, theories or methods) (Paul & Criado, 2020), or the research streams and interrelations among articles (Bahoo et al, 2020). Figure 1 presents a map of different approaches to the literature review based on these two parameters.…”

Service quality in the sharing economy: A review and research agenda

The growth of sharing economy (SE) business models across different sectors suggests global shifts in consumer expectations, values, behaviours and lifestyles. SE products and service are not standardized, and it is impossible to talk about quality as it is traditionally understood. The methodological and theoretical approaches to study the quality in this setup remain segmented. This warrants a revision and systematization of existing knowledge. We use a hybrid review based on integration of bibliometric and structured reviews. We identify research streams, theoretical frameworks, contexts and methods related to perceived service quality in the SE, and also detect current gaps and formulate future research directions.

“…Specifically, globalization is said to bring about new accountability mechanisms as international trading partners concerned about corruption pressure the administrative state to lower corruption (Akhter, 2004 ). Institutional diffusion also results from peer effects driven by membership in supranational organizations (Olabisi, 2019 ), international mergers and acquisitions (Erez & Gati, 2004 ), and adoption by neighboring countries and influential organizations (Bahoo, Alon, & Paltrinieri, 2020 ). Lalountas et al ( 2011 : 645) nicely summarize this perspective: “Many international institutions consider globalization as a powerful tool to fighting corruption since it presupposes structural and institutional reforms.…”

Globalization, economic development, and corruption: A cross-lagged contingency perspective

The 2020 health and economic crisis has exacerbated tensions and debates over whether globalization benefits economic development, as countries face both pressures to enhance economic opportunities through globalization and populist movements seeking protection from global forces. We first review perspectives that offer competing evidence about the role of globalization in regard to economic development and corruption. Drawing on resource dependence and institutional theory, we test the two contingencies of the country’s stage of economic development (low, lower-middle, upper-middle, high) and the globalization dimension (economic, social, political) at play to reconcile competing findings. Using a cross-lagged panel design, we show that these contingencies significantly explain when and what type of globalization can benefit a country’s economy and affect corruption. In doing so, the study provides a platform for future research, and identifies important patterns that can better guide policymaking. Among other results, we find low-income countries’ GDP and corruption benefit the most from the formal dimensions of globalization. With increased wealth, countries are more responsive to the legitimacy accrued with the informal dimensions of globalization, which we find comes at the expense of economic efficiency for high-income countries.
