Despite progress made over the past two decades, current international anti-corruption efforts continue to struggle with implementation issues in individual nations. The present study proposes an approach to anti-corruption policy implementation that considers the fight against public malfeasance in terms of its potential costs and benefits for political leadership. The existence of a political cycle for anti-corruption initiatives is proposed and tested through an examination of Peru’s National Anti-Corruption Commission from 2001 to 2005. The empirical analysis supports the theoretical tenets, showing how the government of President Toledo created and later devolved the anti-corruption commission due to private interests and political circumstances.

反腐败的政治循环：秘鲁成立首个国家反腐败委员会的经验

尽管在过去的二十年里取得了进展，但当前的国际反腐败工作仍在与个别国家的实施问题作斗争。本研究提出了一种反腐败政策实施方法，该方法从政治领导的潜在成本和收益方面考虑打击公共渎职行为。通过对 2001 年至 2005 年秘鲁国家反腐败委员会的审查，提出并检验了反腐败倡议政治周期的存在。实证分析支持了理论信条，显示了托莱多总统的政府如何创建并随后将其下放反腐败委员会因私人利益和政治环境。
