WiSe 22/23: Corruption in Higher Education in Russia: Challenges and Responses
Anna Abalkina
Kommentar
Today there is a rising concern about corruption in universities at the global and national levels. Corruption in higher education as a social phenomenon has a negative impact on economic development and violates academic ethics and the rule of law. The goal of the class is twofold. In the first section, we’ll address the general questions about corruption in higher education. Why do students and faculty members are subject to corruption and is higher education in some countries more corrupt and is it related to the countries’ perception of corruption? What are non-monetary forms of corruption and violation of academic ethics by students and faculty members? What are the social costs and consequences of corruption in universities? In the second section of the course, a special emphasis will be given to the experience of Russia. Russia is an exceptionally interesting case to study because, on one hand, the corruption is widespread, on the other, this is one of few countries, if not the only one, where there are systematic checks on selected forms of corruption (for example, studies on academic misconduct). We also discuss top-down and grassroots anti-corruption policies and initiatives in Russia and their effectiveness. Schließen
