All 28 videos are available from the Perspectives: An Open Introduction to Cultural Anthropology website. Learning Objectives • Explain how the structure of academic careers, topical specialization, and writing styles contribute to difficulty with communicating findings from academic anthropology to a wider public. • Identify examples of anthropological research that has contributed to the public good. • Define public anthropology and distinguish it from academic anthropology and applied anthropology. • Assess the factors that contribute to a desire for public engagement in anthropology as well as the obstacles to this engagement.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. HOW QUI TAM ACTIONS COULD FIGHT PUBLIC CORRUPTION Aaron R. Petty* This Note argues that public corruption at the state and local levels is a serious problem throughout the United States. Because public corruption decreases confi- dence in the democratic system at all levels of government, a strong response is necessary. Due to difficulties inherent in the deterrence, detection, and prosecution of state and local corruption, innovative methods to respond to this problem are needed. The author argues that amending the federal criminal statutes most com- monly used to prosecute state and local public corruption, to allow a private citizen to bring a qui tam civil action against the public official for violations of those criminal statutes, would contribute substantially to the deterrence, detection, and prosecution ofpublic corruption.
