Corruption has long been identified as a governance challenge, yet
it took states until the 1990s to adopt binding agreements
combating it. While the rapid spread of anti-corruption treaties
appears to mark a global consensus, a closer look reveals that not
all regional and international organizations move on similar
trajectories. This book seeks to explain similarities and
differences between international anti-corruption agreements. In
this volume Lohaus develops a comprehensive analytical framework to
compare international agreements in the areas of prevention,
criminalization, jurisdiction, domestic enforcement and
international cooperation. Outcomes range from narrow enforcement
cooperation to broad commitments that often lack follow-up
mechanisms. Lohaus argues that agreements vary because they are
designed to signal anti-corruption commitment to different
audiences. To demonstrate such different approaches to
anti-corruption, he draws on two starkly different cases, the
Organization of American States and the African Union. Contributing
to debates on decision-making in international organizations, this
work showcases how global governance is shaped by processes of
diffusion that involve state and non-state actors. The book
highlights challenges as well as chances linked to the patchwork of
international rules. It will be of great interest to students and
scholars of IR theory, global governance, international
organizations and regionalism.
