Corruption and Governance in Democratic South Africa
This collection of approximately 11,000 pages, covers the period 1995 – 2006, and includes material from South Africa on corruption and governance related issues. See CRL Catalog for more details. A complete reel guide is also available in PDF format.
The documents were collected by Marianne Camerer, a researcher on corruption and governance issues, for the purposes of her doctoral dissertation, entitled “Testing the system – Democracy on trial: Corruption and Reform in democratic South Africa.” All her published material on corruption and related issues in South Africa and internationally is in the collection.
For over six years (1995 – 2002) Camerer was a researcher at the Institute for Security Studies in South Africa (www.iss.co.za) where she set up the corruption and governance program. She consulted for the United Nations before moving to Washington DC in January 2003 to direct the Global Integrity Project (www.globalintegrity.org).
