Description

A career in anti-corruption involves identifying persons or groups that abuse or solicit benefits for returns of power, holding them accountable, and potentially prosecuting such individuals. According to estimates, over $1 trillion dollars is spent on bribes worldwide. The United States ranks 25th among 180 countries for the least amount of corruption, but indexes see the U.S. ranking falling since 2015 because of misinformation and record spending in U.S. elections. After the 2010 ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, dark money, more wealthy donor contributions, and powerful political action committees (PACs) have all increased the amount of money flowing through elections. As a result, confidence in elections and elected officials is dropping precipitously.

For example, as a result of lobbying and political polarization, Congress is becoming less effective by the day and rarely votes in the public interest. The Supreme Court has been stripping the rights of marginalized and historically oppressed groups against legal precedent, all while engaging in unethical behavior by directly taking gifts from wealthy associates. Americans’ faith in our government and justice system is at an all time low, and many of us recognize the importance of taking action to enforce accountability and bring about justice in the face of widespread corruption. Careers in anti-corruption are listed below, with categories ranging from interest groups, legal professions, campaign jobs, and government organizations. There are numerous ways to work against corruption in politics and law, so we wanted to provide a variety of options to consider.

Collection

Attorney

  • The most likely career for an attorney in anti-corruption would be public interest law.
    • Legal careers encompasses public service-oriented work on behalf of individuals and causes that otherwise lack meaningful representation in the legal system.
    • Public interest work requires candidates who can demonstrate a commitment to public interest work, have the ability to collaborate well with diverse colleagues and clients, have the ability to assume responsibility immediately, and have a strong background in law school (such as grades and journals).

Lobbyist
Example organization to check out: Lobbyists 4 Good.

  • What is a lobbyist? 
    • According to Lobbyists 4 Good: “Lobbyists are people who are paid to influence the government. Typically, lobbyists are people who have worked on Capitol Hill, former members of congress, lawyers with experience writing laws, or policy experts.” (https://www.lobbyists4good.org/lobbyist-definition)
  • What do lobbyists do?
    • So-called “white-hat” or social good lobbyists, like those at Lobbyists 4 Good, are trying to combat corporate lobbying– one of the biggest causes of political corruption and a major reason that Congress is slow and ineffective and continues to vote against public interests. These organizations use public funding from ordinary people, non-profits, and grassroots movements to put lobbyists on Capitol Hill, where they can have a bigger seat at the table and be a voice for under-represented groups and campaigns. According to Lobbyists 4 Good, they do lots of things, including “Persuade lawmakers to propose, pass, or amend legislation; work to change existing laws and regulations; provide relevant information to lawmakers; research policy solutions for their issue; identify potential ‘champions’ for the cause; build relationships with lawmakers and their staff; meet one-on-one with congressional staff, committee members, and key agency officials; partner with other organizations in the field; train advocates in other organizations; help congressional staffers draft legislation.”

  • How do lobbyists fight political corruption?
    • Since lobbying is currently one of the most effective methods for influencing the government and congressional legal decisions, Lobbyists 4 Good is fighting fire with fire by putting their own lobbyists in the same arena to fight for what is right, and for what will actually help the American people, rather than what will help corporations’ bottom lines. They know that money talks in the U.S. government, and recognize that corporate lobbying is one of the root causes of corruption in Congress. The only way to fight this is to bring their own money and experienced lobbyists to the table to fight for social justice and against corruption.

Investigative Journalist

  • What is investigative journalism, and what do investigative journalists do?
  • How does investigative journalism fight political corruption?
    • Historically and currently, investigative journalists (members of the free media/press) have acted as a balancing force, holding governments and organizations accountable for corrupt and unethical behavior by exposing hidden practices to public scrutiny.
    • The efforts of investigative journalists to expose the truth have often led to both tangible and intangible effects in the arena of detecting, exposing, and ending corruption. “Examples of tangible effects…include: fuelling public outrage at corruption in government, forcing the impeachment and resignation of a corrupt official, prompting formal investigations into corruption, and spurring citizen pressure for the reform of corrupt States.” More intangible effects include raising public awareness about issues of corruption and incentivizing public officials to investigate corruption and hold those around them accountable. (https://www.unodc.org/e4j/en/anti-corruption/module-10/key-issues/the-role-of-the-media-in-fighting-corruption.html)

      • Getting a bachelor’s degree in any of the field choices above requires at least three years of study.
    • How to become an activist abroad:
      • Activists in the US and India study the same subjects. You can earn a bachelor’s degree in the career fields noted such as psychology, human rights, political science, law or other majors that you are interested in, including environmental science, ecology, etc.

Activist/Campaign Advisor

  • About Represent US
    • The Represent Us website says that Represent Us is “America’s leading non-partisan anti-corruption organization fighting to fix our broken and ineffective government. We unite people across the political spectrum to pass laws that hold corrupt politicians accountable, defeat special interests, and force the government to meet the needs of the American people.”
  • Campaigns
    • Cracking down on corruption
      • There are three states that are currently working on campaigning on cracking down on corruption:
        • Maine: Eliminating Foreign Influence in Elections
        • Virginia: Campaign Finance Reform
        • Washington: Statewide Democracy Voucher
    • The solution to fixing corruption
      • Their website says, “Politicians are supposed to represent us. But most Americans have near-zero impact on public policy… we have a plan to go around Congress to fix corruption ourselves, and it’s already winning.”

Oversight and Accountability
An opportunity to get involved with anti-corruption is to pursue a career in oversight and accountability.

  • What are oversight and accountability careers?
    • This field specializes in holding the government accountable for misinformation, improperly spent tax money, following proper legal and ethical rules, etc. Federal Judiciary oversight mechanisms deter and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse, and address mistakes should they occur. Oversight mechanisms also promote compliance with ethical, statutory, and regulatory standards.

Public Education Campaigns
Another opportunity to get involved with anti-corruption is to introduce or join a public education campaign.

  • What are public education campaigns?
    • These campaigns can cover many topics including abortion education and rights, voting education and rights, vaccination education, etc. When considering joining or creating a public education campaign, think about selecting your audience. Who do you want to educate? What are your writing objectives: what do you want to educate people on? Devise strategies: you can create posters, hold events, write pieces for campus newspapers, etc. Develop messages: what do you want people to remember after reading or hearing about your campaign? Getting involved with public education campaigns can educate people on the truth about propaganda or misinformation.

Policy Analyst (Central Intelligence Agency)

  • Policy analysts work to influence political and social decisions. They collect information, analyze potential solutions, evaluate outcomes, share information, and make recommendations. Analysts make written and oral assessments about domestic politics and foreign policy which is why their role in combating or contributing to corruption in politics is crucial.

Politician

  • "Politician" is an umbrella term; there are several positions that can fall under it. A politician is someone who has professional involvement in politics and typically holds the title of an “elected official.” Politicians play a huge role in corruption/anti-corruption within politics. Politicians serve in the functions of the country, state, county, or city. A lot of politicians are elected; however, some are appointed, such as the Secretary of State. Governors, mayors and the president are examples of elected officials.
  • Salary varies by position: senators and members of the House of Representatives average $174,000. Salary also varies by state.

Listed below are some general majors, minors, certificates, and graduate programs which may be useful for starting your anti-corruption career journey:

Think about what specific skills, resources, or connections that you can offer to complement their efforts.
  • Take advantage of classes and resources while in school. “Make the most of your college experience by enrolling in classes that will broaden your understanding of human rights and activism.”

Law School Preparation:

  • Be aware of how much it costs to apply ($45 per application for LSAC fees, not including potential law school application fees that could range from $60-80).
  • Know where you want to live and practice law because many times the location of the law school you choose will be the area in which you start your career.
  • Use resources that will tell you information about the law school, including acceptance rates, graduation rates, tuition, median LSAT and GPA, and other factors that go into acceptance.
    • Many times websites will provide you percentages of the possibility you can attend the school depending on your GPA and LSAT scores.
      • Law School Transparency is a free website that allows you to set preferences and provide personal information to find the best fitting law school for your specific needs.

      • This section of the LSAC website is similar to the law school transparency website, but it also provides percentages, based on GPA and LSAT scores, to how successful a hypothetical student with different scores would fare getting into different law schools.
  • Do not worry overly about the LSAT. Many other parts of your application package will determine your chances for acceptance into your desired law school programs.
  • Apply earlier rather than later.

    • Everyone has their own important factors, and no one can provide the right answer for you.
      • The only person who can make the right decision is YOU.
  • Consider the prices of each law school, what your financial situation is, and what is affordable while also knowing what you want in your law school journey.
  • Once in law school, STUDY.
    • Write notes and read the material for each class.
    • Be prepared for the final exam at the end of the semester.
