Abstract
The model-theoretic literature on corruption typically focuses on its consequences, e.g. on output as in Ehrlich and Lui (1999), or on government policy as in Acemoglu and Verdier (2000). By contrast, this paper offers a new approach by incorporating the political power structure in the analysis.
