Corruption undermines nearly all key legal and developmental
priorities today, including the effective functioning of democratic
institutions and honest elections; environmental protection; human
rights and human security; international development programs; and
fair competition for global trade and investment. This book
chronicles the global anticorruption steps taken since the movement
advanced after the end of the Cold War. It provides a realistic
assessment of the present state of affairs by critically evaluating
what existing anticorruption programs and treaties have
accomplished and documenting their shortcomings, while developing
an action agenda for the next decade. The authors argue that
reformative action is imperative, and the forces of globalization
and digital communication will level the playing field and erode
the secrecy corruption requires. They define corruption, document
its effects, discuss the initiatives that changed public
perception, analyze the lessons learned, and then evaluate how to
move forward with existing initiatives charting a new path with
new, differentiated strategies.
