Introduction -- 2. Theoretical Background: Self-interest as a Means of preventing Corruption -- 3. Methodological Approach -- 4. Multiple-Case Study Analysis -- 5. Cross-Case Analysis and Discussion -- 6. Summary and Conclusions. This book represents the first systematic qualitative analysis of a new type of collective anti-corruption initiatives. The author describes how companies can take responsibility in the fight against corruption and which six success factors play an important role in this difficult endeavor. Despite great international efforts throughout the last two decades, corruption has not significantly decreased on a global level. In light of globalization, private actors increasingly cooperate in the fight against corruption in the context of sector-specific coordinated governance initiatives. In this study, this new collective approach is examined in view of its potential to curb corruption.
