About the Book :
Never before have world order and global security been threatened by so many destabilising factors--from the collapse of macroeconomic stability to nuclear proliferation, terrorism, and tyranny. Corruption, Global Security, and World Order reveals corruption to be at the very centre of these threats and proposes remedies such as positive leadership, enhanced transparency, tougher punishments, and enforceable sanctions. Although elminating corruption is difficult, this book`s careful prescriptions can reduce and contain threats to global security.
