University of Victoria Law Professor Gerry Ferguson’s new book Global Corruption : Law, Theory & Practice (3d ed) is now openly available on UVic Space and CanLII. Published by UVic, this two volume book is a valuable resource for professors, students, lawyers and anti-corruption practitioners alike.
The book was created to support law courses on global corruption in Canada, with the potential for use in the US, UK or any other English speaking country. The book begins by establishing the nature and extent of global corruption, including reference to additional historical, social, economic and political contexts. The following chapters outline international standards and requirements for combating corruption, with the laws of the US, UK and Canada provided as examples for how these standards are met.
