Corruption in Seketan

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Corruption in Seketan is perceived by the Seketese public as an ongoing issue that affects the economy, law enforcement, public administration, education, and public services. Commentators and media have variously characterized the current Seketese republic as having elements of plutocracy and pejoratively cronyism. Since the 1978 Seketese revolution, the international community has welcomed the progressive decrease in Seketese corruption, especially since the 1990s.

Corruption is considered endemic for everyday life in certain regions of Seketan by some commentators. Surveys conducted by Transparency International show common perception of petty corruption, especially in regions outside of central Seketan. Seketan scores 58 on Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index, the same as Armenia and Greece.

Background

Seketan emerged as a state in the Late Middle Ages as the Kingdom of Seketan, which became part of the Nelbec Empire in 1884, whose rule at the turn of the 20th century was authoritarian. In the aftermath of the Seketese Civil War, Seketan was established as a nominally democratic state. Corruption in Seketan was endemic under the Kjedorate regime which dominated the second and third Seketese republics.
