Foreign Corrupt Practices Act A Catalyst for Global Corruption Reform

This book provides evidence to show how the American government is responsive to the people’s needs by enacting policies such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). It also examines the impact of the FCPA on the global fight against corruption. The world must eliminate corruption and mismanagement of resources. One way to deal with power struggle is to introduce democratic reform, which can open up the political system, allowing for greater citizen participation in the process. Competitive multiparty elections can give citizens a greater role in electing leaders, increasing transparency and accountability, and upholding the rule of law. Such democratically elected governments can help create a stable environment that is conducive to using national wealth for economic development, especially to create new jobs and to reduce poverty.Anyu, J. is the author of 'Foreign Corrupt Practices Act A Catalyst for Global Corruption Reform', published 2007 under ISBN 9781424157020 and ISBN 1424157021.
