Abstract

Corruption in ports where many players are working in an environment of a conflicting interest is a perennial problem. This paper argues that internal controls by the ports authorities will be affected by corruption which puts at risk the facilities and the persons. The issues are illustrated with the Lebanon port case where a gigantesque blast took place in July 2020. It is argued that the corruption affected severely the adequate management of the facilities of the port and limits the possibilities of preventing the accident. This paper verifies some hypotheses using publications that addressed the issue before and after the ballast. Our search included peer-reviewed literature, witness journalist reports, politician interviews, reports published by international organizations, and some media articles. Our finding is that the corruption has infiltrated the port of Lebanon and the blast is a logical result of the lack of the control at many levels.  What is more, it is appear that the corruption is not to be limited to the port, but it affects also some level of government or type of authorities. Finally, anti-corruption, transparency and accountability mechanisms is difficult to instore in a country where the arms are diluted on the hands of many factions and ravaged by many years of war.

Abstract

The corporate governance of airlines companies is not a well studied area. As corruption is a criminal act, the issue is sensitive, and the doors are not opened for researchers. This article aims to contribute to the scarce literature surrounding this topic in order to overcome the lack of research. By staying studying this topic at a general lever and analyzing most of the supply chain activities of real airline companies, we can detect which activities within the supply chain present the most potential where corruption could take place. Propositions will be developed about the characteristics that need to be built into the value chain activities to be robust against corruption. These analyses and propositions are grounded in a case study of the Tunisian airline, Tunis Air. Although this company is not among the biggest airlines in the world, it’s governance could be a structural example in this area of study.
