This research proposal aims to examine the conditions that enabled corruption to emerge and circulate as a public issue, involving a range of organizations, actors, and their respective conflicts and struggles. First, the analysis focuses on the role of non-state agencies dedicated to control and transparency, with particular attention to international agencies and actors, NGOs, transnational movements, and the expansion of transnational law. Second, it explores how the fight against corruption has taken on a technical dimension, centered on specialized solutions and measures, becoming a key area of national institutional policy through the development of targeted public policies. Finally, it seeks to describe and analyze cases of initiatives, organizations, associations, and political leaders who intensively leverage the fight against corruption.
