Danish News Round-Up: Denmark again the least corrupt country in the world

  1. But isn’t the study actually about the perception of corruption, rather than corruption itself?

  2. It was in fact King Frederik III in the 1660s that clamped down on the corruption in the administration. Mostly in fact to consolidate the power and wealth. Penalties were eg. death penalty for bribery. This changed the way danish people feel about corruption, and this is apparently seen even today.

  3. Can any Danes tell me why Denmark has such low amounts if corruption? Is it cultural? Some big legislation that’s been passed over the years?

  4. ”Equal first were New Zealand and Finland, and all three scored 88/100. ”

    I don’t know about you all, but when I went to school someone having a score of 88/100 was not the top student of the school.
