The [[Global Informality Project]] invites contributions to the Encyclopaedia of Family (Kinship) Corruption, edited by David Jancsics (San Diego State University) and Alena Ledeneva (University College London). The planned volume examines how family and kinship ties shape corrupt practices in politics, business, public administration and everyday life. We are looking for short, case-based entries from researchers and practitioners in any discipline and region, including early-career scholars.'''<br> | The [[Global Informality Project]] invites contributions to the Encyclopaedia of Family (Kinship) Corruption, edited by '''David Jancsics (San Diego State University)''' and '''Alena Ledeneva (University College London)'''.

We understand corruption broadly. The volume covers bribery and embezzlement, but also nepotism, favouritism, patronage and the grey zones where loyalty to relatives, moral obligation and formal rules collide. Family itself means different things in different places: households, lineages, clans, godparents, in-laws, and fictive or chosen kin. We would like entries to reflect how people themselves describe these relationships.''<br> | We understand corruption broadly.
