Anti-Corruption Corporate Compliance

How are corporate compliance programs becoming a central feature of global anti-corruption governance, and what legal forces truly drive their spread? This groundbreaking book offers the first global mapping of the legal developments that promote compliance programs across both the Global North and the Global South. Challenging the Northern-centric focus of existing scholarship, it reveals how seemingly aligned reforms mask deeply diverse designs of local legal strategies. By developing an original taxonomy and interrogating the role of the International Anti-Corruption Regime, the book reshapes our understanding of how compliance is legally constructed and incentivized in contemporary corporate practices. Adopting a comparative perspective, this work positions compliance program studies as a vital and emerging field within legal scholarship.
