PREVENTING CORPORATE CORRUPTION GEBUNDEN

This book presents the results of a two-year international research project conducted for the
United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNDOC) to investigate and provide solutions for
reducing bribery and corruption in corporations and institutions. It starts with an empirical
case study on the effectiveness of a set of self-regulation rules adopted by multinational
companies in the energy sector. Second  it explores the context and factors leading to
corruption internationally (and the relationships between domestic criminal law and
self-regulation). Third  it examines guidelines for the adoption of compliance programs
developed by international institutions  to serve as models for the future. The principle
result of the book is a three-pronged Anti-Bribery Corruption Model (so called ABC Model) 
endorsed by the United Nations  intended as a corruption prevention tool intended to be adopted
by private corporations. This work provides a common  research-based standard for anti-bribery
compliance programs  with international applications. This work will be of interest to
researchers studying Criminology and Criminal Justice  particularly in the areas of organized
crime and corruption  as well as related areas like Business Ethics and Comparative
International Law.
