| Sommario/riassunto: | International business involves complex, ethically challenging, and sometimes threatening, dilemmas that can involve political and personal agendas. As a result, it can often be difficult to discern corruption against what may be a different set of cultural norms. In this book, Sharon Eicher examines corruption as it pertains to the business sector and the campaigns in emerging markets to curb corruption in both public and private sectors. |
