"In the 16 years since the start of transition in the former socialist economies of Europe and Central Asia, corruption has been a pivotal issue. This report is the third in a series of studies examining the patterns and trends in corruption in the region. The findings are promising: The extensive reforms in the region in cutting red tape, simplifying taxes, and strengthening audits, among others, are reducing the opportunities for corruption and showing real results on the ground in many countries, with firms reporting bribery to be less frequent and in smaller amounts. There remain, however, important reasons to reinforce and accelerate reforms. Corruption is not falling in all countries or all sectors, and even the most successful reformers still tend to have higher levels of corruption than in Western Europe. Corruption continues to weigh most heavily on new private firms that are the engine of growth and employment in the region."

Featured Report: DocuTicker Report: DocuTips on Health Literacy: "What has traditionally been understood as literacy has been disrupted, like so much else, by the advent of the Internet. No longer is it regarded as simply the ability to read and write. In the Information Age, information literacy is a concept that recognises skills in judging trustworthiness and quality as critical. Such matters of accurate interpretation have long been among the concerns of scholars."
