Abstract

Political corruption is one of the most severe and complex problems faced by
new and old democracies. Academic research has addressed the role of general
factors responsible for its roots in the political system. However, the issue of how
it affects the quality of democracy – as well as how political culture influences its
occurrence – is still to be addressed. Corrupteca is a digital library specialized in
the theme of corruption, aiming to fill this gap. Its main objective is to support the
research and analysis of the phenomenon of corruption in Brazil and worldwide. The
idea is that the public can evaluate – in addition to other educational objectives –
the influence of corruption in trust between citizens and democratic institutions.
