HOMEWORK

What is corruption?
The corruption is characterized by an agreement between two people remarkably corrupt immoral, or between a group of them who are allies to the detriment of others, making a profit for some who have a particular purpose, bypassing the law, the political level . Meanwhile, corruption is the misuse of public power for privategain or sector that are not identified and commune with the common good. Requires the participation of two actors:
* One for his position of power can offer something valuable
* Who is willing to pay a "bite" or bribe to get it.

How the corruptions affect the society?
Corruption has accompanied throughout the ages human beings from time immemorial. We may safely say, since man stoodup, as in ancient cultures and the Bible confirms first cases of corruption. However, this has been noted in recent years where every day we see corruption.

Some types of large-scale corruption are:

*Corruption of minors (pedophilia, sexual abuse, trafficking, etc.).

*Corruption% of women (prostitution, violence, sexual abuse, etc.).

*Corruption in politics (people buying, abuse, etc.).Non-corrupt countries
