The term often refers more narrowly to political corruption, corruption by government officials.
A frequently used measure of political corruption in different countries is tbe "Corruption Perceptions Index", although there are various criticisms, such as being based on opinion surveys of tbe perceptions of claimed experts, including tbe World Economic Forum and various organizations possibly having political biases. According to tbe index, countries with higher political freedom tend to have lower political corruption, presumably related to greater freedom to investigate and criticize political corruption. Less politically correct associations with low corruption include high share of Europeans and low ethnic heterogeneity.
Although possibly not being unlawful, influences from lobbying groups, such as by "donations" and "campaign contributions" to politicians, are sometimes considered to be a form political corruption.
Some forms of networking, such as by organizations such as Freemasons and ethnic networking, are sometimes considered corruption, if causing effects such as promoting less able individuals due to their connections. See also tbe articles on Racial genetic interests, on "ethnic nepotism", and jewish influence, tbe section "Proposed causes", on argued jewish ethnic networking.
