Essence, basic principles, forms and functions of state anti-corruption policy
Abstract
The article examines the essence of anti-corruption policy, its background and its structural elements. Considering that corruption in the public sector distorts the powers and resources intended for the direct benefit of society, in order to protect the public welfare, it is very important to have effective mechanisms of corruption prevention, control and accountability to reduce corruption risks in the public sector. At the same time, it should be understood that the position and slogan "to fight corruption, you need to fight corruption" is false and erroneous. Its main mistake is that the fight against corruption can or should take place with the help of another anti-corruption campaign, the creation of new commissions and departments that promote ethical norms, and the constant preparation of new laws, decrees and codes of conduct. The issue of combating corruption, developing an effective and efficient anti-corruption policy of the state is extremely important and should be one of the priorities of any state that is interested, if not in eliminating and eliminating corruption, then at least minimizing its negative impact and eliminating the prerequisites for its further spread. It is the high-quality anti-corruption policy of the state that is decisive in the process of developing and implementing mechanisms and measures of the state and society aimed at eliminating the causes of corruption. Systematized and defined the main approaches used by scientists when developing their own formulations, modern scientific approaches in public management and administration regarding the national anti-corruption policy in the public administration system, the author's definition of the category "anti-corruption policy" was developed. Based on the results of the research and generalization, the main tasks and principles of the formation and implementation of the anti-corruption policy of the state were formed. The most common features used by foreign and domestic scientists to classify forms of anti-corruption policy have been determined. The basic functions of the state anti-corruption policy are highlighted (for example, the information-prognostic function, ideological-educational, preventive-regulatory and organizational-security function).
