Laura S. Underkuffler examines the conceptual ambiguity surrounding the term corruption within the framework of American legal theory. By analyzing how the concept is invoked in political and judicial discourse, the author explores the tension between moral condemnation and the practical application of law. This study provides a rigorous investigation into how the label of corruption functions as a tool for both legal regulation and political delegitimization.
