International Corruption: Organized Civil Society for Better Global Governance

International corruption is both a result and a cause of failing global governance. Our present paradigm of governing the globalized economy is essentially built on national governments. These have lost their capacity to guarantee a coherent and fair global governance system. Therefore, new actors have to complement these traditional actors. Based on the experience of civil society organizations supporting governments and business in controlling corruption, this paper argues that CSOs can take on a more powerful role in other areas of failing governance—such as environmental destruction, human rights violations, breach of decent labor standards—to offer a new approach to a more just, more peaceful, more prosperous and better world.
