Challenges of Republic of Kosova in Her Fight Against Corruption
Abstract
Corruption is a major problem, and it does not only affect developing countries. It hinders economic growth, weakens the rule of law and undermines the legitimacy of institutions. Although it has been studied nationally from different perspectives, recently we have seen growing bodies of research on local corruption. As far as we know, these recent studies focused on corruption and its effects on votes. The transformation of values and mentality as an integral part of the transition is slow and comes with certain consequences. The values that were favored in the old system (equality, union, collectivism), should be replaced by universal democratic values (individualism, democracy, human rights and freedoms, entrepreneurship, private property, fair privatization, etc.). This paper treats and analyzes corruption as a negative phenomenon which poses a risk to the development of the state. In this paper I aimed to provide more knowledge about corruption in general and inform about the challenges that Kosovo faces in fighting and preventing corruption. This paper is divided into three chapters. The first chapter talks about the concept of corruption and its historical development, definitions of corruption, types of corruption, the forms in which it occurs, the manner of corruption. The second chapter presents an executive summary of corruption in Kosovo. The third chapter deals with the institutions dealing with the fight against corruption in the Republic of Kosovo as well as the legislative basis and Chapter four deals with the risks and damages that corruption does to the economy of Kosovo.
