DÉECENTRALISATION ET CORRUPTION AU CAMEROUN UNE ANALYSE PAR LA MÉETHODE LOGIT SUR PANEL

Abstract

This article aims to evaluate the effect of decentralization on corruption in Cameroon. From the logit method on panel, the econometric estimations are made on a sample of 233 municipalities out of the 360 ​​in Cameroon. The results obtained indicate that decentralization has a negative effect on corruption in Cameroon. An increase in the level of decentralization by 1% could reduce the probability of corruption in these municipalities by 4.42%.
