SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This article responds to survey findings and observations indicating that the role of religions in resisting corruption is insignificant. Corruption in many Asian countries is a multi-dimensional problem and has penetrated all sectors of society, including religious institutions. Religions do contain valuable ethical resources implying anti-corruption positions, yet every religious tradition tends to emphasise a particular dimension of societal life and therefore fails to provide a comprehensive anti-corruption theological framework. With respect to Protestant Christianity, synergising ethical resources in conservative-evangelical, neo-Pentecostal, and the mainstream traditions is needed to construct a multidimensional anti-corruption theology.
