                            <p>Corruption and bribery are observed to be a common behavior not only in developing or transition economies also for all countries. Bribery is emerging as related to the societies’ economic, political or cultural structures. Therefore, the factors that determine the behavior of bribery are also emerging as a versatile and multi-dimensional. However, even if bribery and corruption cases arise from various factors, the economic consequences of both actions impose significant costs and undermine the society’s cultural structure. In this paper, generally the corruption and especially the bribery process are analyzed by the factors determining this process. The study examines the linkages between the bribery behavior and the society’s cultural institutions and structures. Thus, it aims at revealing the cultural determinants of corruption and bribery behavior. For this purpose, the study firstly makes cross-country comparisons through the corruption perception index the data from Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index  CPI  and World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators. Then, it is considered correlations and associations between the corruptions scores of the countries the countries’ cultural values and structures through data which is obtained from the World Value Survey  WVS  and the European Value Survey  EVS . WVS and EVS have large sets of variables to develop indexes for cultural classifications at its various dimensions. Thus, it can be analyzed the corruption scores of countries together predictors on cultural characteristics which is obtained from WVS/EVS at aggregated level, and on other macro level economic factors through cross-section regressions. The study also seeks to determine the predictors of bribery behavior at micro level using different countries data of WVS. The WVS contains a question on how much the individuals tolerate the bribery. In this section, the study uses the bribery acceptance of individuals as a dependent variable, and estimates the effect of determinants as individual values, attitudes and demographic variables</p></trans-abstract>

Rüşvet, toplumların ekonomik, politik ve kültürel yapıları ile ilişkili olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Böylece yolsuzluk ve  rüşvet davranışını belirleyen faktörler de çok yönlü ve çok boyutlu olarak ifade edilmektedir. Bununla birlikte, rüşvet ve yolsuzluk  olayları farklı faktörlerden etkileniyor olsa bile, bu olayların ekonomik sonuçları önemli maliyetler doğurmakta ve toplumun  kültürel yapısını zayıflatmaktadır.  Bu çalışmada, genel olarak yolsuzluk ve özellikle rüşvet süreci, bu süreci belirleyen faktörler analiz edilecektir. Çalışma, rüşvet  davranışı ve toplumların kültürel kurumları ve yapıları arasındaki bağlantıyı incelemektedir. Böylece çalışma, yolsuzluk ve rüşvet  davranışlarının kültürel belirleyicilerini ortaya çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç için ilk olarak; Uluslararası Şeffaflık Örgütü  Yolsuzluk Algılama Endeksi  CPI  ve Dünya Bankası Yönetişim Göstergelerinden ulaşılan yolsuzluk algılama endeksi verisi ile  farklı ülkeler özelinde karşılaştırma yapılmaktadır. Daha sonra ülkelerin yolsuzluk puanları ile kültürel değerleri ve yapıları  arasındaki karşılıklı ilişkiler, Dünya Değerler Araştırması  World Value Survey WVS  ve Avrupa Değerler Araştırması  European  Value Survey EVS ile elde edilen veriler aracılığıyla değerlendirilmektedir. WVS ve EVS, çeşitli boyutlarda kültürel sınıflandırmaya  yönelik endeksleri geliştirmek için çok geniş bir değişken setine kapsamaktadır. Ülkelerin yolsuzluk puanları WVS/EVS’den toplu  düzeyde ve kesit regresyonlar aracılığıyla, diğer makro seviyedeki ekonomik değişkenlerden elde edilen kültürel özelliklerinin  belirleyicileri ile birlikte analiz edilmektedir. WVS, özellikle bireylerin rüşveti ne kadar tolere ettiği sorusunu içermektedir. Bu  çalışma ayrıca mikro ölçekte farklı ülkelerin WVS verilerini kullanarak yolsuzluk ve rüşvet davranışının temel göstergelerini  belirlemeye çalışmaktadır. Metodolojik açıdan Çalışma; bağımlı değişken olarak bireylerin rüşveti kabul etmesini kullanmakta ve  bireysel değerler, davranışlar ve demografik değişkenler olarak temel belirleyicilerin etkisini tahmin etmektedir.</p></abstract>
