Prof Dan Hough is a Professor at the University of Sussex affiliated with the Sussex Asia Centre, specializing in corruption, anti-corruption strategies, and governance with particular focus on China and Asia. His research examines both the effectiveness of anti-corruption measures and the political dynamics of anti-corruption campaigns globally.
Hough's work centers on identifying successful anti-corruption frameworks while analyzing the political constraints that influence their implementation. His recent book Corruption, Anti-Corruption and Governance examines case studies including South Korea, and his British Academy-funded research investigated anti-corruption agencies across Asia. Current projects extend into sports integrity (FIFA, football governance) and religious institutions, demonstrating the evolving scope of corruption studies.
Analysis of his publication trajectory reveals increasing diversification from traditional political corruption into specialized domains like sports ethics and religious governance, while maintaining core focus on institutional effectiveness. His work consistently bridges theoretical political science with practical policy applications, particularly regarding measurement challenges in corruption perception indices.
Hough secured a British Academy Small Research Grant as Principal Investigator to evaluate anti-corruption agencies in Asia, demonstrating active research funding. His advisory role extends through academic supervision and policy engagement, though specific student names aren't publicly listed.
