Résumé
PURPOSE
This study offers a better understanding of supply side of bribery and corruption in an international business perspective by conceptualizing it in the narrower concept of MIB, derived from the deontological perspective to business ethics.
METHODS
We use a case study methodology of professionals working within Canadian mining multinational corporations (MNCs) operating in Africa. We conducted 2 focus groups, 25 in-depth interviews, document search and an open-ended questionnaire to 15 professionals. Further, we drew on a combination of the classic relationalist sociological framework and its recent revision, that we name the relationalism-substantialism framework to analyze the data.
FINDINGS
The triangulated empirical data show that the reason why MIB in the form of bribery supply occurs is not exclusively tied to any given perspective, whether the individual, the organization or the wider societal context. Rather, these different layers are tightly intertwined and interact with each other for the supply of bribery to occur.
ORIGINALITY
Although the three siloed perspectives of MIB have been studied in the literature, they have not been addressed in relation to one another, and even less with a relationalism-substantialism framework Yet, this perspective contributes compellingly to the understanding of the supply side in bribery. We propose a net of conceptually-related constructs that intervene in the process of bribery supply occurrence, namely relationality influenced by institutional dysfunctionality and conflation; and substantiality through agency and culture.
