Understanding and Combating Global Corruption: A Reader provides students and anti-corruption thinkers and activists with a collection of essays by accomplished scholars and thinkers from around the world. The essays, written by McClean and other experts in the field, challenge readers to think through issues associated with global corruption, in both commerce and government, with reference to particular forms of corruption such as bribery and fraud, as well as to systemic or systematic abuses of power or authority.

Students learn that the term "corruption" has a broad definition that is not limited to quid pro quo transactions but can also involve betrayals of trust and failures to render honest services on behalf of stakeholders. Additional readings examine the various forms of corruption that have developed within the United States throughout the country's history and how that corruption was mitigated or ablated. The text includes cases of corruption from other countries, including Brazil and Nigeria. The book closes with a philosophical argument that a "whole-of-society approach" could help countries move toward mitigating if not eradicating corruption.

The second edition features a new reading on regulatory fragmentation and cryptocurrency markets, given their use in tax evasion, sex trafficking, and other illegal activities.

Understanding and Combating Global Corruption is an ideal resource for courses in business and professional ethics.
