Corruption in Czech Services and Tourism
Journal Title: Journal of Tourism and Services - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
According to Transparency International there is very high perception of corruption in the Czech Republic [31]. Results of many researches show that corruption is also widespread in the Czech Republic. There are various types of corruption and the most common ones are bribery, nepotism and lobbying in the Czech Republic. However, it should be pointed out that lobbing is not classed as corruption in West Countries. Corruption is deep-rooted in Czech society due its historical context. Corruption involves both buyer and seller and this means that corruption could have a serious impact on the quality of services and goods. The main purpose of this article is to describe corrupt behaviour in the Czech Republic, especially in the sector of services and tourism, and to suggest the potential steps how to fight corruption. These steps are mainly focused on the tourism sector.
