Join us for public Lecture with Philip M. Nichols, Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania!
The responsibility for fighting corruption lies primarily in the community in which that corruption is found. This is true not only out of respect for the autonomy of communities, but also because local actors are most likely to have the best understanding of that corruption and of the resources available to counter it. In an increasingly globalized world, however, the distinctions between communities becomes blurred, and individual actors have broader responsibilities. In recognition of this fact, a transnational global corruption regime has emerged over the last decade and a half.
This lecture outlines that regime, at the international, transnational, and local levels. In particular, the lecture discusses how the global trade regime affects actors in or working with Ukraine. The lecture concludes with a discussion of how those responsibilities might need to be altered to more effectively help Ukraine reduce corruption.
This event will be in English with simultaneous translation into Ukrainian.
