Notes

This course will explore the emergence of the global anti-corruption movement and will provide students with a brief overview of: the trends in the burgeoning field of anti-corruption enforcement, including various global norms on the subject; the work of select regulatory and enforcement authorities (FCPA, DOJ, SEC); initiatives by multilateral institutions and other international actors (UN, OECD, World Bank); and the day-to-day lawyering skills required of practitioners. Through readings, lectures, case studies, guest speakers, and projects ("Idea Papers"), the course aims to introduce students to significant substantive and practical issues in international anti-corruption work and the fundamentals required for a future career in this field.
