Abstract: Corruption is a widely used concept lately in Romania and not only, the effective fight against this phenomenon being considered a precondition of the existence of the rule of law and an indicator of good governance. In terms of corruption vulnerability and its social impact, the local administration system remains one of the most sensitive areas. The need to design and implement a set of appropriate policies for control of corruption in local public administration has become increasingly imperative, the main desire being to create a healthy system. This article aims to identify how decentralization and corruption tend to relate.
