This thesis by Emanuel Wittberg examines the prevalence and effects of corruption in mature democracies, with a specific focus on Sweden. Despite being high on anti-corruption rankings, mature democracies are not immune to corruption, which often takes hidden and sophisticated forms. The study employs large-scale data and statistical methods to measure corruption risks at the micro level, including recruitment to public sector jobs, the rental housing market, and public procurement. The findings highlight substantial corruption risks and suggest that variations in institutional quality and impartiality exist even in mature democracies.
