项目摘要

This collaborative project is aimed to empirically and theoretically study political corruption, clientelism and social capital, dealing with Japan, South Korea, Italy, France, Southern European countries, Middle-Eastern European countries as objects of comparative study.We can treat the distinction between corruption and clientelism with much care, but we cannot toe a conventional line of reasoning regarding clientelism as a mere residue of late modernization. At the same time we should not take the optimistic view that corruption can be conquered by the exploits of clientelism. Very little of this kind of study has considered corruption and clientelism as structural and institutional products of interweaving forms of symbiosis and collision-course power structures that arise from the various demands of capital accumulation (capitalism), rationalization (bureaucracy), and political participation (democracy).This joint study analyses key aspects of the debate such as, should corruption … More and clientelism be evaluated as a 'lubricant' in terms of administrative efficiency, legitimate demands from the margins of society to readdress the social and economic inequality or economic development? Should they be understood as the result of a 'vicious circle' reinforced by lack of 'social capital' or 'moral capital'? What would be the effect of strengthening policing to control political corruption and could electoral reform or a decentralization of government power be a cure for all?Using a range of theoretical approaches and empirical proofs, all of us strive to survey the historical, institutional, societal-structural and political-cultural factors that form corrupted and clientelistic practices and to answer the above-mentioned questions.A symposia about comparing political corruption and clientelism offered as one panel of RC06 (Political Sociology) Section at 2006 International Political Science Association held in Fukuoka, Japan (July 10, 2006) has made important contributions to this work. We also published Comparing Political Corruption and Clientelism by Ashgate Publishing Ltd. (UK) in April, 2006.We are convinced that finding acquired in this joint work will contribute to make our democracies work better. Less

这个合作项目旨在从实证和理论上研究政治腐败、庇护主义和社会资本，以日本、韩国、意大利、法国、南欧国家、中东欧国家为比较研究对象。我们可以非常谨慎地对待腐败和庇护主义之间的区别，但我们不能遵循传统的推理路线，将庇护主义视为后期现代化的残余。与此同时，我们也不应该乐观地认为腐败可以通过庇护主义的功绩来战胜。此类研究很少将腐败和侍从主义视为共生和冲突过程权力结构交织形式的结构和制度产物，这种权力结构源于资本积累（资本主义）、理性化（官僚制）和政治参与（民主）的各种需求。这项联合研究分析了辩论的关键方面，例如腐败和侍从主义是否应该被评估为“润滑剂” 行政效率、社会边缘重新解决社会和经济不平等或经济发展的合法要求？它们是否应该被理解为因缺乏“社会资本”或“道德资本”而加剧的“恶性循环”的结果？加强警务控制政治腐败会产生什么效果？选举改革或政府权力下放能否包治百病？我们所有人都运用一系列理论方法和实证证据，努力调查形成腐败和依附主义行为的历史、制度、社会结构和政治文化因素，并回答上述问题。一场关于比较政治腐败和依附主义的研讨会提供了作为2006年日本福冈召开的国际政治学协会RC06（政治社会学）分会（2006年7月10日）的RC06（政治社会学）分会的一员，为这项工作做出了重要贡献。我们还于 2006 年 4 月由阿什盖特出版有限公司（英国）出版了《比较政治腐败和依附主义》。我们相信，在这项联合工作中获得的发现将有助于使我们的民主制度更好地运作。较少的
