Bribery and Corruption in International Business describes, explains and analyzes the nature and extent of bribery in international business and the national and international efforts to combat it. Drawing on case studies, it evaluates bribery practices across industries and countries. Written in a non-technical style, the book can be a standalone reading or complement other readings in university courses on ethics, social responsibility, and international business. Author Rajib Sanyal explores a hot topic in corporate social responsibility and provides a single source to readily understand the subject. He explains why bribery takes place; what are the cultural, economic, political, and institutional determinants; the types of industries and companies and countries where this occurs; the various legal and non-legal efforts to combat bribery; implications for corporations, public policy, and society; and future directions.
