Abstract

This work is intended to be what has been called an “analytical narrative;” that is, it is a presentation of a specific, naturally occurring circumstance but with the analysis examined through the lens of a strategic economic model. The core of our model, corruption reform modeled as an equilibrium selection problem, is presented in the first two sections. We then describe in greater detail many of the policies William Parker implemented in his reform drive in the Los Angeles Police Department. We close the chapter by relating his policies back to our model.
