Abstract: As a form of economic crime, corruption is a global security issue recognized as a first-tier international challenge closely related to economic and social development. Many view corruption as a “victimless” crime and bribery only as a different way of doing business, but today there is wide acknowledgment that corruption infringes the fundamental human right to equal treatment. Current studies yield insights on the nexus of transnational organized crime and corruption as significant threats to political stability, human security, democracy, and economic development.
