This article explores the reasons why the most important anti-corruption campaign in twentieth-century Venezuela failed to win sustained support. Employing a constructivist approach to historical actors’ understandings of corruption, it analyses the debates that erupted when the Acción Democrática (Democratic Action, AD) party prosecuted 167 former officials for illicit enrichment. The ensuing debate demonstrates that AD and its opponents disagreed over the proper boundaries between the public and private spheres in a modern state. AD sought to punish officials who used public office for private gain, but critiques of the trials effectively countered AD and contributed to its overthrow in 1948.

本文探讨了 20 世纪委内瑞拉最重要的反腐败运动未能获得持续支持的原因。它采用建构主义方法来分析历史参与者对腐败的理解,分析了民主行动党(民主行动,AD)以非法致富罪名起诉 167 名前官员时爆发的辩论。随后的辩论表明,AD 及其反对者在现代国家公共和私人领域之间的适当界限上存在分歧。反倾销试图惩罚利用公职谋取私利的官员,但对审判的批评有效地反驳了反倾销,并促成了其在 1948 年的推翻。
