Abstract

In the intricate landscape of emerging democracies, combating political corruption poses formidable challenges to governance and democratic consolidation. Rooted in pervasive societal, economic, and institutional dynamics, corruption undermines the integrity of democratic institutions, erodes public trust, and threatens political stability. Strategies aimed at addressing corruption require comprehensive approaches encompassing institutional reforms, civil society engagement, technological innovation, and international cooperation. Key themes include transparency, accountability, rule of law, civil society, e-governance, institutional integrity, political stability, economic development, and international collaboration. Through concerted efforts guided by these principles, emerging democracies can aspire to foster governance structures characterized by integrity, transparency, and resilience, advancing towards inclusive and sustainable democratic governance.
