PROBLEMS OF CONCEPTUALIZATION OF THE PHENOMENON OF CORRUPTION
The article is devoted to an instrumental conceptualization of corruption, including classification of its forms and definition of the institutional mechanism. The article analyzes the traditional conceptual approaches to corruption. It is shown that the main aspects of the regulatory value approach are: value assessment of corruption as a clearly negative phenomenon; the correlation of corruption with violations of the laws or norms of morality and ethics; consideration of corruption as a deviant behavior. The author accented ambiguous and problematic issues of such approach. Rationalist approach to corruption, which includes the economic approach, is characterized by the fact that the preference is not of value estimates and different standards but of functional evaluation of various manifestations and consequences of corruption. Justification is provided for the insolvency of claims about the positive functions of corruption, its positive role as a means of deregulation to overcome bureaucratic barriers. The article reveals a generalized mechanism of corruption, which consists in the fact that an official of an administratively organized structure goes beyond the established limits and violates the normative regulation of his/her official powers and rights, including standards of business conduct and ethics, and (or) societal norms of behavior, of ethics and morality and unlawfully distributes and uses resources of the structure not to implement its functions and tasks but to retrieve personal or group benefits. The article presents the author's interpretation of the concept of "political corruption" and describes a hierarchical system of forms of political and economic corruption, the top of which is "capture of the state" by corruption. The article also contains classification of the types of administrative resources of public power, abuse of which is the crux of the institutional mechanism of corruption in the sphere of public authority. From the point of instrumental conceptualization, corruption in the sphere of public authority is defined as an abuse or misuse by the public official of managerial resources of public authority not to implement the functions of the state and ensure the goals of social development but to obtain any improper advantage, extracting personal and / or group benefits including in favor of third parties, benefits that can have both tangible and intangible expression.
Key words: corruption, public power, conceptual approach, institutional mechanism, administrative resources.
