PAPER: Giorgio d’Agostino, J. Paul Dunne, Luca Pieroni – Government Spending, Corruption and Economic Growth
Highlights

•
Analyse the direct impact of corruption on economics growth using a very large sample of countries and find it to be negative.

•
Analyse how corruption can also interact with other forms of government spending to influence growth.

•
Find important complementarities between military spending and corruption that compound their negative impact on growth.

•
Find that combating corruption will have not only positive direct effects but also important indirect effects.

DATA Annual data on 'Informal payments to public officials (% of firms)' [by country] is available in the World Development Indicators (WDI) published by the World Bank (here).
http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/IC.FRM.CORR.ZS

Informal payments to public officials are the percentage of firms expected to make informal payments to public officials to "get things done" with regard to customs, taxes, licenses, regulations, services, and the like.


FROM A ALESINA PAPER: Control of Corruption: The control of corruption index is "capturing perceptions of
the extent to which public power is exercised for private gain, including both petty and grand
forms of corruption, as well as capture of the state by elites and private interests." The stan-
dardized index which corresponds in 2000 ranges from
2:5 to +2:5 with lower values indicating
a higher degree of corruption. Source: World Bank Governance Matters Indicators Database
