Abstract

The present study is part of a much larger study that examined the ethics of bribery and the ethics of tax evasion from a variety of perspectives. In this study, data were taken from the most recent World Values Survey. Seventy-six countries were included in the survey. Of the 76 countries included in the survey, 49 (64.4%) of the urban and rural populations did not differ significantly in their view of bribe taking. Rural populations considered taking a bribe to be significantly more serious in 15 countries (19.7%). Urban populations considered taking a bribe to be significantly more serious in 12 countries (15.8%).
