Presenting the broad spectrum of interdisciplinary academic research on corruption, this essential reference book examines anti-corruption legislation, governance mechanisms, international instruments, and other preventative measures intended to tackle corruption.

Including over 100 entries and adopting a comprehensive approach to researching and combating corruption, this Encyclopedia covers the key ideas, concepts, and theories in corruption law. Featuring contemporary case studies from around the world, the work analyses the intersection of corruption law and the social sciences, as well as various manifestations of corruption - including bribery in both the private and public sectors, embezzlement and criminal mismanagement, and money laundering. The Encyclopedia also explores the work of intergovernmental anti-corruption organisations, such as the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) and the OECD Convention.

This Concise Encyclopedia will be essential reading for students and scholars of economic crime, law and business, and regulation and governance - as well as international regulators, policymakers, and politicians.
