The dialectic of corruption...and the inevitability of the collapse of development

Abstract

Corruption is a social phenomenon that reflects the state of cultural and international subculture that supports and sustains it. It is a complex web of intertwined causes, consequences, and manifestations that are difficult to dismantle. This dialectic has made corruption a prevalent phenomenon of our time, which has had significant repercussions on human security, the primary and essential goal of development. This has led and continues to lead to its inevitable collapse. Development embodies the state of civilizational birth, which represents human security for a people with active, dynamic, and sustainable economic, social, and political structures.

In this context, achieving development, which is essentially an active political decision, becomes impossible without uprooting the causes and dimensions of underdevelopment and corruption in all its forms and manifestations. This is necessary to achieve the civilizational birth of societies living with fragile, deteriorated, and collapsing economic, social, cultural, and political structures. Thus, the hypothesis on which our research is based is confirmed: corruption is a dialectical social phenomenon that inevitably leads to the collapse of development.
