| Popis: | This article proposes a theoretical framework with which to examine and understand noble cause corruption. Specifically, it draws on the social psychological work of Katz and Kahn, integrating role theory and role conflict with previous research into policing behaviour and misconduct. After proposing the theoretical framework, research directions are presented along with related methodological challenges. This article accomplishes the following: it provides a stepping off point for research into an under examined and thus far atheoretically understood phenomenon, it increases the academic understanding of noble cause corruption, and it assists practitioners in creating policies aimed at combating corruption generally. |
