Abstract
Talk about corruption has increased in the South Pacific, though it is hard to tell if there is more corruption or just more reporting of it. Defining corruption as “the use of public office for private gain,” this article considers some recent reports of corruption in relation to other issues in South Pacific politics: tradition, ethnicity, aid, land tenure, sovereignty, and governance.
