The Many Lives of Corruption: The Reform of Public Life in Modern Britain, C. 1750-1950

This edited collection provides a uniquely expansive history of how corruption has undermined and exercised public life in modern Britain, from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-twentieth. It provides the first account that pays equal attention to the successes and limitations of anticorruption reforms, and the shifting meanings of 'corruption'.
