Assignment:
Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:
1. Research Transparency International (TI), publishes the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) and annually ranks countries "by their perceived levels of corruption, as determined by expert assessments and opinion surveys." The CPI generally defines corruption as "the misuse of public power for private benefit."
2. Discuss your outlook on the CPI. Do you agree with TI's assessment of the United States, India, Somalia, and a country of your choice? Why or why not?
3. (Make sure you cover your outlook of the CPI as part of your response!)
Post 2 replies to classmates or your faculty member. Be constructive and professional.
(Note: You can make statements that compliment and agree or disagree as this is great for building a discussion. However, make sure that you include 3-5 sentences of NEW information in addition to your compliment or statement where you state something they said and your agreement or disagreement with that statement.)
Some other sites have their rankings and do not use the CPI. When formulating your responses, you can look at these or other sites to see how the countries we are covering rank and to look at other countries of interest.
