ABSTRACT: In recent years, new forms of corruption have emerged one after another. This paper aims to theoretically explore the manifestations of new corruption based on practical cases and sort out and summarize the characteristics of new corruption. It is shown that new corruption has exhibited features like concealment, indirectness, multiple objectives, wide-ranging subjects, and the use of advanced technology. It also explores the causes of the formation of new corruption and analyzes the current challenges of identification and governance of new corruption from different perspectives including the subject level, object level and institutional level. On this basis, this paper proposes policy recommendations for controlling new types of corruption, including paying attention to key groups and strengthening effective supervision of key minorities, carrying out special governance to punish new corruption problems in key areas, attaching importance to ideological work and improving party spirit awareness, improving systems and mechanisms and strengthening supervision and control effectiveness, and innovating technology application to improve the level of corruption governance. This paper therefore provides a comprehensive overview and understanding of the manifestations, causes and possible solutions of new corruption.
