Each year since 1995, Transparency International has asked policy wonks from more than 100 countries about political and economic corruption in their corner of the globe, and then used the results to assemble a picture of the state of corruption around the world.
This year the United States ranked 16th, but that will likely change next year as the effects of Enron et al reverberate. (TI uses data from the past three years to determine the rankings.)
