Civil service ethics and corruption: a comparative study of Vietnam and the United States

Nguyen, Thi Duc Hanh ( 2004)

Corruption is a global problem. To deal with corruption in developing countries, one common solution often proposed is to apply methods used successfully in advanced countries such as the United States. The thesis tests the appropriateness of such an approach in the case of Vietnam. It argues that the anti-corruption strategies of the United States are inapplicable for Vietnam because of the different nature of corruption situation. It concludes that anti-corruption methods of one country should not be imposed on others.
