Abstract

This article deals with a very critical scientific issue: the fallacy of identifying the corruption phenomenon, with certain forms of it (such as bribery or fraud). The article analyzes, why this identification is scientifically incorrect, who is responsible for it and who benefits from it. It also discusses, the implications that this mistake has, both for the scientific study of the phenomenon within social communities around the world and for the necessary management of the various forms of corruption within specific populations. The article concludes, by defining the term "corruption," as well as defining the phenomenon of corruption and its forms.
