Session Description
This panel explores the novel concept sexual corruption, also addressed as sextortion. This is a new concept within political science that has recently gained attention both among scholars as well as advocacy organizations. The panel includes both conceptual papers, as well as papers providing examples on methodological approaches and ideas on how to measure sexual corruption. Collectively, these papers shed light on a gendered form of corruption that has until recently been overlooked in the corruption research.
