Abstract

The study analyzed works on corruption and social communication, documents of international organizations on these issues, proving that corruption results in costs for resources and affects the indexes of income and investment resources, formation of human capital and labor supply. Corruption is caused by: non-systematic nature of social and economic policies; underdevelopment of the legal system and legal provision of anti-corruption policy; limited performance of duties by control bodies etc. Based on the studies main forms of corruption manifestation were distinguished.
