Study on the Relation of Grassroots Corruption and Government Expenditure

Abstract

Grassroots corruption is one of the difficult problems in grass-roots governance. At present, local government continues to decentralize power to grassroots departments, and a large number of public services and public goods are provided by the grass-roots governments, match with public finances. However, with the expansion of the scale of public finance expenditure at the grass-roots level, it should be especially vigilant about the ineffective expansion caused by the corruption at the grass-roots level. This paper aims to explore the logical relationship between grassroots corruption and fiscal expenditure through literature review, and then put forward some suggestions.
