Abstract
Making politics more open and transparent is one of the main challenges for
civil society. In
Curtailing Corruption: People Power for Accountability and
Justice
,
Beyerle puts together an interesting text that describes and analyses dif-
ferent approaches to fight corruption around the globe. To that end, she uses a
mixed methods approach and a variety of case studies. From Latin America to
Asia, this book sharply dis
sects social movements and civil society strategies to
abolish corruption in different social contexts. Going beyond geographic bound-
aries, the author lays out an important analysis on theories of new social move-
ments.
