The regulation and combat of public and private corruption as well as organized crime has become an international stan- dard of anti-corruption legislation and law enforcement, which has been adopted by many countries. The global diffusion of regulatory agencies, which began in the 1990s, took place mainly in countries with long lasting tradition of a regula- tory state and regulatory capitalism such as Brazil and China. In a joint effort to fight corruption, new international cooperation agreements were signed; interna- tional guidelines and governmental regulations were tightened and sanctions and penalties have become more severe. The boom in the regulatory state was ac- companied by a boom of compliance measures in the private sector, in companies, hospitals, football associations, etc. However, the trend of more stringent regulations at international, national and organizational level does not seem to have produced the expected results. Illegal behavior could not be pre- vented and new white-collar crime was exposed. This has happened not only through the transformation of established habits and customs of giving and ta- king into illegal acts or through more thorough monitoring, but also through the inability of globally operating companies to comply with all—often contradic- tory—new rules and laws in the different countries where they do business. New scandals at Volkswagen, Petrobras and Glencore raise the question whether they stem from the fact that the new regulations boom exerts an excessive burden on companies or simply from some individuals’ determination to commit illicit acts such as deliberate profit-seeking at any price. This book is the result of an intensive debate that aims to explain the emergence and persistence of organizational and individual malpractice in the light of the new regulation boom, but also to come up with effective measures to combat and prevent such illegal practices. This dialog began in 2015 with the international research project “The Fight against Corruption and Manipulation—Regulation and Self-Regulation in Medicine and the Economy”, at Heidelberg University. This international research project was coordinated by Professor Markus Pohl- mann of the Max-Weber-Institute for Sociology, Professor Gerhard Dannecker of the Institute for German, European and International Criminal Law and Law of Criminal Procedure; Professor Dieter Dölling and Professor Dieter Hermann VI Preface of the Institute for Criminology. It is based on a research grant from the Volkswagen Foundation. The Heidelberg research team investigated the contra- diction between better law enforcement and more comprehensive measures to combat corporate crime, corruption, malpractice and the limited preventive effect they have. The study began with a comparison between two sectors: industry and medicine (organ transplantation) in two countries, USA and Germany. In recent years, the research network has expanded to include other countries such as Brazil and China, integrating additional areas such as funding of political parties. Within this research project, numerous publications, lecture series and confe- rences have been presented. This book is the result of the latest international and interdisciplinary scientific contributions in the field of organizational deviation and organized crime, which were presented at the Herrenhausen Symposium “Bribery, Fraud, Cheating—How to Explain and to Avoid Organizational Wrongdoing?” in October 2017 in Hanover. Many people have contributed to the success of this edited volume. Our gratitude goes to all authors of this book and referents at the Herrenhausen Symposium who contributed to a broader understanding of organized crime, corporate crime, corruption and malpractice in organ transplantation.
