The Journal of Law and Corruption Review is an open-access academic journal dedicated to the critical and interdisciplinary study of Law and Corruption in their multiple dimensions.
Recognizing corruption as a complex global phenomenon that affects democracy, the economy, fundamental rights, and institutional legitimacy, the journal aims to foster theoretical and applied research on legal, institutional, and social mechanisms of prevention, accountability, and integrity.
The journal encourages submissions that address both the theoretical and doctrinal foundations of Law and applied studies that engage with issues of compliance, governance, public policy, and human rights. In addition to focusing on traditional dimensions of anti-corruption, the journal is open to research covering broader legal and interdisciplinary perspectives, including:
Institutional controls, accountability, transparency, and strengthening of public governance.
Corruption, money laundering, international cooperation, plea bargaining, due process, and fundamental rights.
Compliance, due diligence, corporate integrity, directors’ liability, and emerging technologies (blockchain, AI, digital governance systems).
Anti-corruption conventions, comparative approaches, transnational cooperation, and asset recovery.
The impact of corruption on fundamental rights, social inequality, and sustainable development.
The economic, social, and institutional effects of corruption, as well as critical assessments of anti-corruption policies and governance strategies.
Contributions from political science, economics, sociology, public administration, and international relations to deepen the understanding of corruption and integrity.
With this broadened scope, the Journal of Law and Corruption Review positions itself as a plural platform for dialogue between Law and other fields of knowledge, encouraging research that contributes to the strengthening of integrity, justice, and good governance at both national and international levels.
