Title Corruption and Its Challenges: The Battle to Stop a Universal Problem
Date 2009-09-25
Description Corruption is increasingly seen as a universal problem, deeply embedded in many national legal systems, and also transnational in nature. It is so endemic that it has generated its own special vernacular, such as Code 1,000 in Honduras (a reference to the 1,000 lempira note), mordida in Mexico, arreglo in the Philippines, baksheesh in Egypt, dash in Kenya, or pot de vin in France. Classical Islamic law textbooks for judges are emphatic about avoiding rashwa.
