“…Per se, these kinds of arrangement make sense, but they become dysfunctional if they prevent a society’s economic and political systems from functioning effectively. Further, the misuse of power for private benefits violates the hypernorm of “necessary social efficiency” and is unethical (Donaldson & Dunfee, 1994) and illegal in most countries (Chandler & Graham, 2010).…”

“…A variety of conceptual and empirical studies have examined the relationship between culture and corruption (Beets, 2005; Chandler & Graham, 2010; Davis & Ruhe, 2003; DiRienzo, Das, Cort, & Burbridge, 2007; Getz & Volkema, 2001; Husted, 1999; Park, 2003; Martin, Cullen, Johnson, & Parbotheeah, 2007; Sanyal, 2005; Seleim & Bontis, 2009; Treisman, 2000). The results of this research support the importance of culture, however, are inconsistent with respect to specific cultural dimensions.…”

The relationship between culture and corruption has been the focus of various studies, producing inconsistent results. We suggest that these inconsistencies might be due to the conceptualization and measurement of culture. Drawing on the possible value/fact dichotomy discussed in ethical philosophy, we introduce the construct of cultural discrepancy-the difference between cultural values ("ought") and practices ("is")-as a predictor of pervasive (i.e., fully institutionalized and predictable) and arbitrary (i.e., uncertain and relatively unorganized) corruption. Examining the relationship between the discrepancies observed in the GLOBE cultural dimensions and the Corruption Perception Index shows that in-group collectivism discrepancy is negatively related to pervasive corruption; future orientation discrepancy is positively related to arbitrary corruption. Further, we show that these relationships are contingent on national wealth. The negative relationship for in-group collectivism discrepancy is most pronounced in poor and moderately wealthy countries, and the positive relationship for future orientation discrepancy is most pronounced in rich countries.

“…It influenced the adoption by a number of countries of extraterritorial jurisdiction for foreign bribery pioneered in the FCPA (Chandler and Graham 2010;Hatchard, 2007). Apart from legislation, government agencies such as the United States Aid for International Development championed anti-corruption in their work with developing countries, particularly in the period from the 1990s.…”

“…From a managerial perspective, bribery has become an essential issue these days. As Chandler and Graham () indicate, one of the key aspects that managers must control is the possible existence of negative societal elements, such as bribery, in countries where they are going to invest or move in, if they want to create successful businesses. The way in which firms manage their anti‐corruption area is directly related to the social dimension of reputation.…”

The social reputation of European companies: Does anti‐corruption disclosure affect stakeholders' perceptions?

Corruption is a very important topic in society but also for businesses. However, there are few empirical studies that analyze corruption from the point of view of disclosure by companies and none that analyze its effect in corporate reputation. The aim of this paper is to use stakeholder theory to analyze the potential power of reporting in influencing stakeholders' perceptions and communication tools, such as sustainability reports, to bolster corporate reputation in relation to the social issue of corruption. Based on a regression analysis using data from the 70 largest European companies, we find that disclosure positively correlates with social reputation in the anti-corruption area. The study addresses a gap in the literature by highlighting the fact that this global and key social issue has not yet been analyzed empirically.
