Foreword

When I was approached by the editors to contribute a foreword to this Commentary on the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, I hesitated. Not because I thought that the topic of the book was not important enough or unworthy of scholarly attention: To the contrary. However, neither during my years at the International Court of Justice, nor during my tenure since at the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal, nor in the various (both inter-state and investor-state) arbitrations that I have been involved with did corruption explicitly play any role. And yet, it often was the proverbial elephant in the room. Recently, in the case concerning Immunities and Criminal Proceedings (Equatorial Guinea v France), a complaint brought by a non-governmental anti-corruption organisation against certain African politicians in respect of allegations of misappropriation of public funds, the proceeds of which had allegedly been invested in France, was even at the origin of an ICJ case.

Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that until very recently, the issue of corruption had not yet received the attention it deserves—from politicians and organisations but also from international lawyers and scholars. While bribery and other forms of corruption have been on the criminal statute books of many countries for decades or centuries, the fight against corruption at the international level has only begun as late as the 1990s, notably with the 1997 OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions. Academic contributions on the fight against corruption by international lawyers are still few and far between. Only recently, scholars have begun to explore the nexus between corruption, good governance, and human rights in any depth. And to today, it can be delicate to point out that corruption may be the single most important obstacle to development; that there is a clear relationship between corruption and inequality in countries; and that corruption is both a driver and facilitator of illegal migration. The awareness of these interrelations might have been one of the reasons why the UN International Law Commission decided not to take up corruption as a topic for codification or progressive development.

If, increasingly, these discussions are being held and these issues are being tackled today, both politically and academically, it is in no small measure thanks to the Convention. In the fifteen years of its existence, it has achieved almost universal adherence. It has provided a global legal framework for the fight against corruption in all its forms, both professionalising and de-politicising that fight. It has provided a forum for states to share best practices and information. Through regular meetings, it has created an international community of anti-corruption experts and an agora for the international anti-corruption discourse.

The present book provides the first article-by-article commentary to the Convention, thus giving lawyers, scholars, and practitioners a very useful tool to interpret and apply it. We may never fully eradicate corruption, just like we will never be able to eradicate crime or terrorism. Maybe that is part of the price we have to pay to live in an open, free, and democratic society. But actually, the more transparent and democratic a

society is, the more resilient it seems to be against corruption. And the more corruption is reduced, the more open societies can thrive. Hopefully, this book will be a modest contribution to this struggle.

Member of the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal Judge, International Court of Justice (2003–2012) Professor of international law, Universities of Munich and Michigan

Preface

The 2003 United Nations Convention Against Corruption marks the peak of the development of international anti-corruption law. It represents the culmination of post-Cold War efforts to internationalise domestic criminal laws and policies concerning corruption. Since the Convention’s conclusion in 2003 and entry into force in 2005, however, the global political climate has become less hospitable to internationalisation efforts of this sort, with nationalism on the rise, and multilateral institutions under stress. The future development of international anti-corruption laws and policies seemingly hangs in the balance. Yet, the importance of the fight against corruption has been highlighted in recent years by the ‘Odebrecht’ scandal in Latin America, migration crises that are caused in part by corruption, and political interventions in the judiciaries of East European states, to name but a few examples.

Against this backdrop, the following commentary aims to further our understanding of this Convention and to provide a platform for future work in the international anticorruption field. The editors embarked on this commentary in 2015 with a view towards generating more knowledge about this treaty—what its provisions mean, why they read as they do, and what they signify in practice. Readers will find interpretations of the treaty’s provisions, as well as discussions of the drafting history, parallel provisions in other anti-corruption treaties, and data on implementation and enforcement in domestic legal systems. The editors hope that the commentary will not only help to fill a need for more scholarship about the treaty, but also to foster more research in the future about the operation and impact of this instrument in practice.

The editors are deeply grateful to the thirty-five contributing authors, whose chapters it has been a pleasure to read and to edit. It has also been our pleasure to work with the editors at Oxford University Press—Merel Alstein, Emma Endean, Kimberly Marsh, Natasha Flemming, and Jack McNichol. Without the dedication of the contributing authors and the editors at OUP, this volume would never have come to fruition.
