Description
Anti-Corruption Law and Policy seeks to introduce students to the legal and cultural meaning of corruption in different societies and the increasing trend of applying a western concept of corruption to the developing world. The course will consider global efforts to deal with corruption through international treaties and agreements. This will also include consideration of economic theories of how corruption impacts on developing economies.
The course will also consider anti-corruption laws and bodies that have been established in Australian and particularly in NSW. Each stage of this history has been a response to some major public scandal. The class will consider the extraordinary law enforcement powers that have been granted to these bodies, some of which run counter to the rule of law. Case studies of corruption and vice will be covered.
