Corruption dans le Secteur d'Education : Une Typologie de Conséquences

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to focus on corrupt practices that develop within the education sector and the consequences associated with them. Given the fact that most previous studies dealing with the costs of corruption put emphasis only on corruption from public officials, we propose a typology of consequences that allows a comprehensive understanding of the effects related to corrupt practices that could thrive in the education sector. The typology of consequences presented in this paper identifies three types of consequences: those related to the achievement of the goals of access, quality and equality given to the education system, those related to the demand for education and school performance and, those related to the achievement of broader objectives of the education sector and the development of society as a whole
