Abstract

A tolerant attitude towards corruption is considered in connection with the norms of family morality, aimed primarily at maintaining the well-being of loved ones and relatives. Based on the obtained em­pirical data, it is argued that the norms of family morality compel the closest relatives of a corrupt offi­cial not to protest against illegal income and not to condemn their corrupt relative for his or her illegal activities. Family morality in this situation is opposed to public morality, aimed at the common good and the observance of laws. It is proposed to consider the conflict of the society norms and family norms as necessary in all those situations where the interests of a large social group (society) do not coincide with the interests of a small social group (family) included in it.
