Abstract
This democratic era has opened up enormous opportunities for men and women to play an active role in public policy to occupy strategic positions - administrators of government as regional heads. However, as government administrators, it turns out that women are as involved as men in corruption. The factor that influences the corrupt behavior of women administrators is the power they have. With the power it has, it means the ability to act, driven by greed. Another factor is the pragmatic-hedonistic lifestyle. The research question is how deep are women administrators involved in corruption. Using qualitative research methods with a phenomenological type. Using secondary data sources in the form of literature studies. This study takes an example of two intellectual actors in local government where these women are public officials.
