title = "Persistent malfeasance despite institutional innovations and public outcry: a survey of corruption in Brazil",
abstract = "In this chapter, the authors describe the ongoing corruption scandals in Brazil, which have felled two presidents to date. Beyond the recurrent scandals lie deeply embedded forces that recreate corruption on a daily basis. Bribes, misallocations of public funds, non-competitive procurement processes, fake receipts, and the like testify to corruption{\textquoteright}s pervasiveness at all levels of the Brazil government bureaucracy. They also look at Brazil{\textquoteright}s attempts to curb corruption through institutional changes, such as random auditing of municipalities. They conclude by examining the growing public outrage over this matter and voter backlash against corrupt officials.",
