Why tightness alone is not enough
Gelfand et al. demonstrated that tight cultural norms lowered COVID-19 transmissions and deaths, but can't account for the lag between the beginning of the pandemic and the significance of tightness. Rational values help citizens adopt novel behavioral norms necessary to inhibit viral transmission. Multiple regression analysis on COVID-19 cases and deaths within twelve 25-day stages of the pandemic revealed that rational values were particularly …
Cutting Corruption without Institutionalized Parties
How did South Korea come to adopt successful anti-corruption administrative reforms in the early 2000s which markedly improved the nation’s corruption perception and bribe survey scores? Emergent democracies generally lack the institutionalized political parties needed to push through anti-corruption policies, and Korea was no exception. While Korean civic groups took the lead against corruption, they failed to sufficiently press President Kim Yo…
Deterring Extortive Corruption in Korea through Democratization and the Rule of Law
Extortive corruption is a particularly harmful form of graft, in which politicians threaten private property to induce bribe giving. While perceived rates of corruption in Korea sharply declined with democratization, instances of abuse of power remain, most recently at the National Intelligence Service. Employing previously classified data, this comparative analysis of industrial restructuring programmes demonstrates how democratization and a str…

Following the Money to Determine the Effects of Democracy on Corruption
Democratization should reduce incentives to engage in corruption, by expanding the size of the winning coalition, heightening transparency, increasing accountability to the electorate, and multiplying the number of veto points required for a corrupt deal. Yet many young, consolidated democracies, such as South Korea, have recorded higher levels of perceived corruption following democratization. I argue that the apparently higher level of corrupti…
Changing values and the recent rise in Korean development assistance
This article reviews Korean foreign development aid policies, setting them in the context of evolving development assistance policies in OECD countries during the last fifty years. Korean foreign assistance levels remained quite low throughout the 1980s and 1990s, but have risen significantly in the last seven years, and the paper asks why this is so. Historically, strong support for aid has been linked primarily to humanitarian motives; the coun…
