Bribery is one of the world's most destructive and challenging issues. Yet despite efforts on national and international levels to tackle bribery, it remains a significant issue. Recognizing this, ISO has developed a new standard to help organizations fight bribery and promote an ethical business culture, which is "ISO 37001 - Anti-bribery Management Systems" in 2016. ISO 37001 can provide the tools and systems to greatly reduce the risk and help organizations deal with it effectively if it does arise. It is a flexible tool, which can be adapted according to the size and nature of the organization and the bribery risk it faces. After enforcing the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act, Korean government standardized ISO 37001, one of the Business Ethics of Global Standard, harmonizing International Standards into Korean Industrial Standards (KS) in 2017. It is meaningful in that Korean companies have localized regulation which applies to global standard anti-bribery management systems. Only about 100 organizations, however, have adopted ISO 37001 so far. The primary purpose of this paper is to examine the expectation and awareness of ISO 37001. Results show that still many organizations lack of awareness of ISO 37001 and it is implicated that much promotion and education will be necessary. This study has originality and value in that it can provide the guidelines for activation of ISO 37001.

한-EU FTA 발효 후 한국의 대영국 수출물량 및 투자는 발효 전에 비해 지속적인 증가 추세를 보여왔다. 영국은 한-EU FTA 효과와 더불어 2013년 세계은행이 선정한 '비즈니스하기 쉬운 국가'에서 최상위로 선정됨에 따라 앞으로도 한국의 다국적 기업들에게 지속적인 수출 및 투자를 하고 싶은 매력적인 무역대상국으로 자리매김 하고 있다. 이러한 가운데 영국법무부는 비즈니스 과정에서 발생하는 부패행위를 척결하기 위해 '영국 뇌물수수법(UK Bribery Act 2010')을 제정 및 전면 시행함으로써 영국과 비즈니스 관계에 있는 개인이나 기업의 뇌물공여 및 수수에 대한 처벌을 선포했다. 영국 뇌물수수법은 적발 시 '무한' 벌금형까지 처벌을 가능하게 함으로써 다른 어떤 부패방지법보다 강화된 법이다. 대영국 비즈니스를 하고 있는 한국의 다국적 기업들도 영국 뇌물수수법의 관할권에 속하기 때문에 영국 뇌물수수법에 대한 정확한 이해와 영국법무부가 발행한 지침서(Guideline)에 명시된 뇌물행위 방지를 위한 준수방안을 구비하지 않으면 가혹한 처벌 대상이 될 수 있다. 따라서 이 논문은 영국 뇌물수수법에 대한 자세한 분석과 해당 법이 한-EU FTA 시대에 대영국 수출 및 투자에 관여하는 한국 다국적 기업에 미칠 영향과 그에 대한 대처방안에 관하여 논하고자 한다.

About 100 organizations have adopted ISO 37001 as in the first half of 2019. So far many side effects of other ISO certifications have been recognized. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the current status of ISO 37001 in Korea for effective operation and management. The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the current status and problems of ISO 37001 in Korea. It can provide useful guidelines for improving ISO 37001 to manage bribe and corruption effectively.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to define the anti-ESG activities of companies recognized by media by reflecting ESG recently attracted attention. This study extracts keywords for ESG controversies through association rule mining. Design/methodology/approach A research framework is designed to extract keywords for ESG controversies as follows: 1) From DeepSearch DB, we collect 23,837 articles on anti-ESG activities exposed to 130 media from 2013 to 2018 of 294 listed companies with ESG ratings 2) We set keywords related to environment, social, and governance, and delete or merge them with other keywords based on the support, confidence, and lift derived from association rule mining. 3) We illustrate the importance of keywords and the relevance between keywords through density, degree centrality, and closeness centrality on network analysis. Findings We identify a total of 26 keywords for ESG controversies. 'Gapjil' records the highest frequency, followed by 'corruption', 'bribery', and 'collusion'. Out of the 26 keywords, 16 are related to governance, 8 to social, and 2 to environment. The keywords ranked high are mostly related to the responsibility of shareholders within corporate governance. ESG controversies associated with social issues are often related to unfair trade. As a result of confidence analysis, the keywords related to social and governance are clustered and the probability of mutual occurrence between keywords is high within each group. In particular, in the case of "owner's arrest", it is caused by "bribery" and "misappropriation" with an 80% confidence level. The result of network analysis shows that 'corruption' is located in the center, which is the most likely to occur alone, and is highly related to 'breach of duty', 'embezzlement', and 'bribery'.

The purpose of the study is to research the legal nature and essence of corrupt behavior, as well as the international and national legal aspects of the fight against corruption. The article discloses the relation between the factual results of the operation of anti-corruption normative and legal acts and the goals and objectives for which they were adopted. The effectiveness of the regulatory effect and quality of anti-corruption legislation is determined by the example of the Russian Federation. The article provides an analysis of theoretical aspects of the theory and history of the formation and development of anti-corruption legislation (on the example of Russia and some other countries, as well as international legal norms) giving several practical examples from foreign legislation demonstrating the structure of the system of government bodies battling against corrupt behavior (including its latent forms). The authors suggest that there is a need for a unified conception of information and propaganda support of state anti-corruption activities. This will make it possible to inform the population that the state is actively working to prevent corruption threats and to bring perpetrators to justice, as well as contribute to citizens' trust in the state policy in this area. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly inform the citizens about the provisions of the anti-corruption legislation, explaining the importance of their observance.

각 국가의 부패행위방지를 위한 제도적 혹은 법적인 노력은 국내차원을 넘어서 국제통상과 국제비즈니스에서도 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 그 대표적인 예가 미국의 연방법인 해외부패방지법(FCPA)이다. 지난 10년간 미 법무부는 해외부패방지법의 관할권을 끊임없이 확장하여 이제는 미국증권거래소에 등록된 한국기업도 그 영역 안에 들어가게 되었다. 또 다른 예는 투명성을 다룬 한미 FTA 협정문 제 21 장중에서 특히 부패방지에 대한 조항인 제 21.6 조다. 한미 FTA로 인해 우리 기업의 대미수출뿐만 아니라 미국 내 법인설립 및 대미투자도 크게 증가할 것을 예상하면 앞으로 더 많은 한국 기업이 미국 해외부패방지법이나 한미 FTA 제 21.6 조의 관할권에 들어갈 것으로 전망된다. 미국 해외부패방지법과 한미 FTA 제 21.6 조는 부패방지라는 공통된 목적이 있으나 그 내용에 있어서 유사점과 차이점을 보인다. 따라서 본 연구는 두 가지 법을 비교분석하여 우리 기업의 부패행위방지를 위한 가이드라인의 초석 마련에 기여하는 것에 그 목적을 둔다.

본 연구는 한국의 공공부문 및 민간부문 주요 부패 현황을 살펴보았다. 연구방법은 2차 자료 분석 방법을 채택하였으며, 분석 자료는 입소스(Ipsos)에서 2019년 3월 발표한 '한국사회 부패현황'을 사용하였다. 두 집단의 주요 부패 추이를 살펴보기 위해 연도별 차이분석을 실시하였으며, 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 공공 부문에서는 뇌물과 같이 눈에 띄는 범죄의 수는 감소하지만, 직권남용처럼 쉽게 감지되지 않는 지능적 범죄는 증가하고 있었다. 민간부문에서는 횡령은 점점 감소하고 있었지만, 업무상 배임은 일정 수준을 유지하고 있었다. 둘째, 2003년부터 2017년까지 공공부문의 주요 부패 연간증감률 평균은 8.0%인데 반해, 민간부문은 1.8%로 나타났다. 셋째, 공공부문은 2015년을 제외하고 부패가 조금씩 증가하고 있지만, 민간부문은 2014년 이후 점차 감소하고 있었다. 본 연구는 높은 권력간격 문화의 개선, 낮은 부패인식 문화의 개선, 무처벌 문화의 폐지와 같은 문화적 측면을 고려한 세 가지 예방조치를 제시함으로써 학술적 기여도와 차별성이 있다. 향후 1차 자료를 통한 실증연구나 두 집단을 분리한 개별적 연구가 요구되어진다.
