Among the indicators of governance, corruption is an important test of governance standards. Regardless of the century in countries where corruption is present, the effects on not only the people, but the government, society and economy as well. In the study of corruption, Robert Klitgaard put forward the theory of equations generated by corruption. Published by Transparency International Corruption Perception Index in China over the years (Corruption Perception Index, CPI) shows that China currently experiences the highest level of corruption in East Asia. The 2010 Corruption Perception Index shows the countries neighboring China, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Macau have a Corruption Perception Index ranking better than China. This study utilizes Klitgaard’s corruption formula to examine three different aspects of corruption, i.e monopoly, accountability, and discretion. These aspects are used to examine the periods of time from Deng Xiaoping’s opening up of china, through the presidencies of Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao to determine the main causes of corruption. First, various periods of political and economic change, are examined, as well as the serious monopoly situation, relative lack of accountability and level of governmental discretion during each period. The study further examines cases of corruption in each period in light of the aforementioned aspects. Finally, an in-depth analysis of the Chinese government’s response of the challenges present by the different aspects of corruption is provided. The analysis examines the effectiveness of the anti-corruption amendments, policies, and legal code changes that occurred during each leader’s tenure.
