Corruption as Betrayal : Experimental Evidence on Corruption Under Delegation
SSRN Electronic Journal(2005)
摘要
We consider corruption behavior in a three-players game : Principal, Agent, Corrupter. When the Principal chooses a fair wage, the Agent faces con∞icting interests to reciprocate. This delegation efiect is expected to lower the level of corruption as compared to what arises in two-players settings. We set up two experiments varying in the exogeneity of the delegation relationship. The experimental evidence supports the delegation efiect. This, in turn, could account for the deterrence efiect of wage on corruption even in the absence of detection.
