Chính phủ điện tử, văn hóa quốc gia và tham nhũng: Bằng chứng từ tiếp cận Bayes
Nguyễn Văn Điệp, Phạm Xuân Thu, Nguyễn Hoàng Thi
Tóm tắt:
Mục tiêu của bài viết này nhằm phân tích ảnh hưởng của chính phủ điện tử (CPĐT) đến tham nhũng trong bối cảnh khác biệt văn hóa giữa các quốc gia. Phương pháp hồi quy tuyến tính theo trường phái Bayes được dùng để xử lý bộ dữ liệu bảng của 66 quốc gia trong giai đoạn 2003–2018. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy ảnh hưởng mạnh mẽ và tích cực của CPĐT đến việc kiểm soát tham nhũng của các quốc gia. Bên cạnh đó, mức độ ảnh hưởng của CPĐT đến việc kiểm soát tham nhũng tùy thuộc vào bối cảnh văn hóa quốc gia. Cụ thể, việc phát triển và tham gia CPĐT sẽ giúp kiểm soát tham nhũng hiệu quả hơn ở các quốc gia có nền văn hóa mà mức độ khoảng cách quyền lực, chủ nghĩa cá nhân, nam quyền và né tránh rủi ro cao. Ngoài ra, kết quả nghiên cứu cũng cho thấy GDP bình quân đầu người, ổn định chính trị và chính phủ hiệu quả có ảnh hưởng tích cực đến kiểm soát tham nhũng. Kết quả này hàm ý rằng, bên cạnh yếu tố văn hóa thì các yếu tố kinh tế và chính trị cũng góp phần làm giảm thiểu tham nhũng ở cấp độ quốc gia.

E-Government, National Culture and Corruption: Evidence from Bayesian Approach
Abstract:
This paper aims to analyze the influence of e-government on corruption in the context of cultural differences between countries. The Bayesian linear regression method is used to process panel datasets of 66 countries from 2003 to 2018. The results show a strong and positive influence of e-government on the control of corruption. In addition, the extent to which e-government influences corruption control depends on the national cultural context. In particular, the development and participation of e-government will help control corruption more effectively in countries with cultures where the degree of power distance, individualism, masculinity, and uncertainty avoidance high. Also, the research results show that GDP per capita, political stability, and government effectiveness have a positive effect on controlling corruption. This result implies that, besides cultural factors, economic and political factors also reduce corruption at the national level.
