Description
Brian Klaas (@brianklaas) is an associate professor in global politics at University College London, host of the Power Corrupts podcast, and author of Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How It Changes Us.
What We Discuss with Brian Klaas:
How accurate was historian Lord Acton's assessment that "power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely"?
Why do people become corrupt? Is it the system working on them from the outside or something in human nature working on them from within?
What kind of people become corrupt? Is everyone susceptible to corruption's temptations?
When it comes to corruption, should our leaders be held to higher standards than the rest of us?
How can we create fair systems to incentivize people to resist corruption in favor of the straight and narrow?
And much more...
