Abstract
Experiences from different countries, as well as the scientific study of the phenomenology of corruption, clearly indicate that repression on its own is not sufficient to downsize corruption to such a level that would allow any society to function well. Preventive efforts in countering corruption aim at creating positive social conditions which prevent the emergence of corruption and further develop society – a crucial role is played by educational programs in this respect. The paper therefore analyses the concept of ʻeducation against corruptionʼ on the basis of practical experiences and gathered empirical data from a series of ʻanti-corruption classesʼ in Croatian schools.
