Beskrivning

This book offers unique insights into institutional and social processes that lead to silence in the face of corruption. Authored by the whistleblower at the centre of the Airbus–GPT corruption scandal, it uses insider research to explain why individuals do not speak up when they might be expected to do so. The book draws heavily on interviews with military and civil service elites, providing highly original academic material and making an important contribution to the study of organisations.
