At least in the recent literature, that retail corruption is called "market corruption"--this is what we hear about the most when we talk about corruption in India, Nigeria, etc. There is another variety, more pernicious form of corruption, it is called "network corruption": here, corruption is a product of collusion between various groups over the long term. In the developed world, that's what we see, and it is hard to prevent collusive corruption, since there is no money trail. People leave their jobs as staffers to powerful politicians, and then join the k-street.
