    The Russian president has approved a National Anti-Corruption Plan every two years since 2008 and considers that struggle one of his top law enforcement priorities. Most agencies from the police to the courts publish separate statistical reports charting corruption-related crimes.

  • Faking performance together: systems of performance evaluation in Russian enforcement agencies and production of bias and privilege

    2014-03-25

    Criminal justice

    Ella Paneyakh examines a critical source of prosecution and conviction bias in that country – the system by which prosecutors, police, judges, and other legal professionals are evaluated. More specifically, she demonstrates how that system (exclusive of any inherent corruption or bias) institutionalizes incentives for the prosecution of large numbers of defendants in routine cases for the purpose of meeting informal quotas. Officials from a variety of law enforcement agencies, seeking to “hit their numbers,” develop techniques of selecting the “right” cases (and avoiding “wrong” ones), manipulating charges depending on the victim’s and defendant’s statuses.

    oversight, and eliminating the incentives and conditions that induce law enforcement personnel to commit illegal actions and apply the law selectively.
