Abstract
Corruption is a real social matter. It often occurs in developing countries certainly due to the culture and the economical level they have. The approach we tried to give to our study was to find another factor that could impact on the level of corruption. The technological factor was the one we tried to study. Based on empirical studies, if something can help fighting corruption, it is the Information and Communication Technology. We are first going to situate the context of corruption and try to define the problems it causes. Then we are going to suggest some solutions still based on empirical studies. To understand the purpose of our work, it will be necessary to define what corruption is and what Information and Communication Technologies are. Finally, we are going to describe the model we created, the methods we used to realize that study, expose the results we obtained, discuss them and suggest some implications for the future.
