Research paper thumbnail of Introduction to international corruption: implications for states and multinational enterprises

CEIJ ebooks series, 2023

The phenomenon of corruption is a type of crime with many faces which has been studied for years ... more The phenomenon of corruption is a type of crime with many faces which has been studied for years only in the context of national legislation. This monographic work seeks to shed light, we dare say for the first time, on the phenomenon of corruption at a global level and in a restrictive circle and connection with multinational enterprises. Thus we see in our analysis the differences between “law in the books” and “law in action” in light of the most recent developments in the application of both American and European legislation in a comparative way. Our work carried out an investigation within the framework of the criminalization process through the instrument of international conventions as inspired by the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) of 1977, i.e. of an American legislative nature, continuing afterwards to ascertain the ineffectiveness of this system. Our investigation follows an analytical examination of American law which highlights the characteristics that allow global application and a level of enforcement as a basis for prevention and identification of the implications that arise for multinationals as well as for foreign countries. Within this system, the global model is filled with the provisions that are provided for through the anti-corruption system that was established by the FCPA.
