Corruption Perceptions Index 2011

Last week the Corruption Perception Index 2011 has been revealed. This is the definition from taken from the official website:

The CPI ranks countries/territories based on how corrupt their public sector is perceived to be. It is a composite index, a combination of polls, drawing on corruption-related data collected by a variety of reputable institutions. The CPI reflects the views of observers from around the world, including experts living and working in the countries/territories evaluated.


Italy is pretty much half way through the index, at number 69, one of the lowest for European countries and the lowest among G8 countries, which is really not surprising considering that the former prime minister is one of the most corrupted politicians in modern history and the country is based on a system of cronyism.
