Resumen de Corruption as a Major Challenge in Newly Developing Kurdistan.
Current research struggles to identify the factors that contribute to corruption in developing nations. In the process of development at large, corruption is a challenge that is affected by social factors. This paper hypothesizes that corruption is culturally supported, with citizens consider doing favors for each other as their responsibility. The paper argues that training programs, recruitment and education systems do not work in developing nations due to this public support to corruption. The paper presents Kurdistan, the newly developing region, in northern Iraq, as its case study. Even though this region is aggressively developing, corruption, nepotism, and favoritism are huge challenge in this process of development.
