Follow on Google News | How corrupt is international business?Emerald publishes special issue on tax evasion and corruption - read it for free until 18 August 2011
By: Emerald Group Publishing This current anti-corruption crusade is accompanied by a small but growing body of critical academic work which has deconstructed the concept of corruption. Guest editors of the special issue, Ed Brown and Jonathan Cloke of Loughborough University, UK, explain, “There can be few occasions when the editors of a special issue have the timing so felicitously supported by the passage of global events. From the “epidemic” Papers include a critical examination of the international NGO Transparency International's (TI) role in combating corruption, the increasing legal pressure on international business to ensure compliance with legal and other standards on corruption, a case of bankruptcies in Nigeria and the role of tax havens in providing a supply-side stimulant for corrupt practices. “Critical perspectives on corruption: an overview” is published as Volume 5, Issue 2 of critical perspectives on international business, and is available to read for free until 18 August 2011. Published by Emerald Group Publishing, the journal provides space for researchers and practitioners in diverse fields such as management, politics, economics, geography, etc., to come together to examine questions surrounding international business and approaches to management practice.
