Kleptocrac[it]y


Kleptocracy, is a term applied to a government that takes advantage of governmental corruption to extend the personal wealth and political power of government officials and the ruling class .


Cities are evolutionary products of economics, choices made due to scarcity of resources (capital). The fact that they are scarce there is a cynical view of the governmental offices to abuse it for personal gains. This exploitation takes form of corruption, a by-product of the economy that inflicts it homogenous integrity with unforeseen disparity. Corruption that hides and disguises itself as an integral component of the system.


Kleptocracy is necessary for evolutionary growth of cities, but at a cost of huge lifestyle disparity.Kleptocrac[it]y is required to bolster and weave these difference.
