...Use of ‘I’. The main purpose of this book chapter is to illuminate the basic concepts of ‘corruption’ and to define different forms of corruption. The author implies that the corrupt doings of police officers can be seen as a ‘individual’ failure but to a certain extent also a ‘institutional’ failure where the force can be seen as responsible. The chapter describes ‘corruption’ in a narrow, legalistic sense generally refers to an police officer knowingly doing or not doing something that is against his or her duty for some form of financial or material gain or promise of such gain. This limited focus is geared principally at bribery and ostensibly financial arrangements for not enforcing the law. The offence of bribery is posited on an external briber, one who commits the act of bribing and some form of reciprocation from the one who is bribed. This implies that that the initiative for the transaction comes from someone outside the police organisation. Generally the nature of the reciprocation is vital for proving that a criminal offence has taken place; simply accepting gifts or small amounts of money without evidence of reciprocation might fall under internal disciplanry regulations. For instance, showing that an officer altered a statement so that the briber will not be prosecuted for an offence would be an indication of reciprocation. After describing various forms of coruption and defining what it is, the author continues onto the second part of the chapter explaining...

...A business (also known as enterprise or firm) is an organization engaged in the trade of goods, services, or both to consumers.[1] Businesses are predominant in capitalist economies, where most of them are privately owned and administered to earn profit to increase the wealth of their owners. Businesses may also be not-for-profit or state-owned. A business owned by multiple individuals may be referred to as a company, although that term also has a more precise meaning. The etymology of "business" relates to the state of being busy either as an individual or society as a whole, doing commercially viable and profitable work. The term "business" has at least three usages, depending on the scope — the singular usage to mean a particular organization; the generalized usage to refer to a particular market sector, "the music business" and compound forms such as agribusiness; and the broadest meaning, which encompasses all activity by the community of suppliers of goods and services. However, the exact definition of business, like much else in the philosophy of business, is a matter of debate and complexity of meanings. Although forms of business ownership vary by jurisdiction, there are several common forms: Sole proprietorship: A sole proprietorship is a for-profit business owned by one person. The owner may operate on his or her own or may employ others. The owner of the business has unlimited liability for the debts incurred by the business. Partnership: A partnership...

Ich möchte nicht indiskret sein, doch ich kann mir schlecht vorstellen, daß Ihre ... äh ... Institution viel Verwendung für eine solche Ma-schine hat. Könnten Sie mir erklären, was Sie damit zu tun gedenken?« »Mit großem Vergnügen«, erwiderte der Lama, legte behutsam den Rechenschieber nie-der, den er zur Umrechnung des Währungskurses benutzt hatte, und strich die weiten Ärmel seines seidenen Gewandes glatt. »Ihr Mark-V-Varianten-Kalkulator ist in der Lage, jede mögliche Kombination mit Zahlen bis zu zehn Stellen durchzuführen.
