The whole world is facing the problem of corruption. In addition to the problems of poverty, the main problem is the corruption that causes poverty, lowers local investment, lowers international interest in investing. This phenomenon can not be stopped with words and political rhetoric, many international countries are reluctant to invest in the West. Due to the level of corruption political parties come to power using vain rhetoric that they fight corruption, many court hearings are held against the corrupt that the court fails to convict them of corruption.
Corruption is a global evil harmful to states, harmful to economic development for human well-being, not infrequently the world despairs because of the art of intent to greatly reduce this phenomenon, but hopes always exist and this is positive, strategies the many anti-corruption scandals that exist from different governments suggest that humanity does not give in to an evil such as corruption and by people who work for the state or companies and are involved in such illegal work.

Auszug aus dem Buch
Anti-Corruption Policy and Strengthening Law and Order in Kosovo
Some progress has been made in the field of fight against corruption in the period 2009-2011, at least in the opinion of the Government of the country. The Government has mainly had as interest the adoption of the necessary anti-corruption legislation, full written documents and the establishment of various bodies anti-corruption.
The general civic perception is that although the legal framework is widely expressed in the country, it is not respected or often not implemented at all to sanction violators of the law. Thus, the ability of institutions to respond effectively to corruption threats remains challenging but there is growing interest in designing effective public policies and good governance with the sole aim of preventing corruption, combating corruption and the sustainable development of the rule of law in Kosovo. In addition, in Transparency International's 2010 Global Corruption Barometer, political parties were identified as the area most affected by corruption in Kosovo, as 55% of households surveyed rated it as "extremely corrupt".
According to the same source, 57% of citizens believe that the government's fight against corruption is "somewhat / very ineffective".
