Corruption °C. Report on Corruption and Anticorruption Policy in Latvia. 2008 Second semiannum

This is already the second issue of Corruption C in a row during whose preparation the Corruption Prevention and Combating Bureau (KNAB) operated without a head appointed by the Parliament. One of the themes covered in this issue is difficulties that specialized anticorruption institutions face in Central and Eastern European countries that acceded the European Union several years ago.

The article written by the internationally recognized Slovenian expert Goran Klemenčič and Valts Kalniņš clearly shows that political backlash against this type of agencies is no exclusive feature of Latvia.
