It is a long held belief that sanctions are the best guard against corrupt practise. This innovative work argues that in some cases sanctions serve to increase corruption: arguing that they provide an opportunity for corrupt transactions in their flouting. Instead it suggests that better regulation, not sanctions, offers the most effective response to corruption. Taking both a theoretical and applied approach, it examines the question from a global perspective, drawing on in particular economic approaches, to provide a model for tackling corrupt practises."-- UR - https://doi.org/10.5040/9781509929245?locatt=label:secondary_bloomsburyCollections ER -
