International legal problems of fighting corruption in the context of geopolitical integration

Abstract

Corruption creates a significant array of legal problems due to the fact that it is inherent in the development of modern society. A significant negative impact has the fact that, until now, leading experts in the field of law have not formulated the generally accepted concept of corruption. Since humankind at the junction of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries is characterized by the problems of globalization of all aspects of activity, corruption manifestations have an increasingly negative impact on various aspects of human life, which inevitably entails the need for more effective regulation of those aspects of a socio-economic nature that are subject to the influence of corruption. Given that corruption has become global in nature, modern society needs to develop effective regulatory measures that meet this challenge. Within the framework of the activities of leading international organizations, the problem of creating a system of regulatory acts that can eradicate corruption is very acute. In this regard, the article discusses various regulatory options designed to effectively influence the spread of corruption on an international scale. In this section we study the methodological foundations of legal approaches to countering the phenomenon of corruption. At the same time, the most significant features of a set of techniques and methods designed to limit corruption in inter-state relations are highlighted. Concepts of a legal nature, implemented in the international arena, proposed by authoritative scientific organizations dealing with the problems of corruption within various national legal systems are explored.
