I completely agree that reduce the size of government and increase transparency will reduce corruption. But disagree with ombudsman, special courts or auditories and such. In Latin America exist a sort of "mania for control" issuing tons of restrictive laws and punishments, useless, all those just increase the power of well located officers who pretend to be "the honest ones" making lot of arrangements under the table. All this is because the moral approach against corruption who only increase hypocrisy and manicheism.
Corruption is a cost and benefits issue and if the cost of control is bigger than reasonable, must be fight decreasing the opportunities "opportunity makes the thieve" say a Spanish saying and is true: only a small and transparent government can decrease corrupt behavior efficiently

What about the efficiency of the cancellation of supposedly anomalous contracts? This has been a major component of the recent anti-corruption drive in the Philippines.

Allowing big companies to go around the world where they can benefit by bribing and corrupting heads of states of dictatorial governments and eventually allowing their wealth (both the briber and the bribed) to be stashed and also be invested in western countries is the major corruption issue that needs to be discussed about.

Do you think the high-profile corruption cases in Brazil might break down the sense of immunity from corruption than many top Brazilian politicians no doubt felt?
