Abstract: The dynamics of social tolerance on corruption have been analyzed based on the dynamic economic-interaction model of social tolerance between two groups which was recently proposed by Cerqueti et al. (2013). The evolution properties of social tolerance on corruption, such as the steady states, unequal distribution of aggregate wealth, and the necessary condition of achieving full tolerance have also been discussed. We show that dynamics of social tolerance on corruption can be greatly influenced by the distribution of aggregate wealth between corrupt officials and ordinary members of the society, which may contribute as original insights to the application of the dynamic economic-interaction model proposed by Cerqueti et al. An unequal distribution of aggregate wealth between corrupt officials and ordinary members of society is determined quite naturally in the framework of replicator dynamics.
