Failed Nations and Communities (The Second Mental Independence) oleh Dr. Marc A. Nader

This academic book outlined (12) less productive nations with a profound study of their history and socioeconomic status. Three wealthy States were also be introduced to illustrate the huge disparity in transparency score: the lower the transparency score, the higher the level of corruption. A failed State has often been characterized as a nation not being capable of providing basic needs to its population. In fact, the government's responsibility becomes inexistent and its weakness is perceived in all aspects of the country's social, economic, educational, health and security system.
