Abstract

This article focuses on the similarities and the differences of three degenerations of the political system. The author proposes the cultural political approach to define and to sign the boundaries between clientelism and corruption, clientelism and criminality, corruption and criminality. Clientelism and criminality are into a political culture; corruption on the contrary is out of a culture.
