answer the questions 11 to 15: All political systems need to
mediate the relationship between private wealth and public power. Those that
fail risk a dysfunctional government captured by wealthy interests.
Corruption is one symptom of such failure with private willingness-to-pay
trumping public goals. Private individuals and business firms pay to get
routine services and to get to the head of the bureaucratic queue. They pay
to limit their taxes, avoid costly regulations, obtain contracts at inflated
prices and get concessions and privatised firms at low prices. If corruption
is endemic, public officials - both bureaucrats and elected officials - may
redesign programmes and propose public projects with few public benefits and
many opportunities for private profit. Of course, corruption, in the sense of
bribes, pay-offs and kickbacks, is only one type of government failure.
Efforts to promote 'good governance' must be broader than anti-corruption
campaigns. Governments may be honest but inefficient because no one has an
incentive to work productively, and narrow elites may capture the
state and exert excess influence on policy. Bribery may induce the lazy to
work hard and permit those not in the inner circle of cronies to obtain
benefits. However, even in such cases, corruption cannot be confined to
'functional' areas. It will be a temptation whenever private benefits are
positive. It may be a reasonable response to a harsh reality but, over time,
it can facilitate a spiral into an even worse situation. 11. The governments which fail to focus on the
relationship between private wealth and public power are likely to become: (A) Functional (B) Dysfunctional (C) Normal functioning (D) Good governance Answer: (B) 12.
