Publications

Do you know of any magazines, journals or newsletters, both online and offline, that deal specifically with the subject of corruption?

Whilst there do not seem to be many specifically anti-corruption groups, this subject is supported by Whistleblowing and Civil Liberties groups as a part of their work.

• There are protest sites highlighting particularly-misbehaving public bodies:
  • www.swindonboroughcouncil.com
  • Wealden
  • PRAG & TAPP
• Several Civ Lib groups have newsletters:
  • Transparency International is the international resource-sharing group for anti-Corruption Reform.
  • The Freedom Association (no relation) publish a magazine, “Freedom Today”.
  • The Society for Individual Freedom, who thought of Ombudsmen, publish a journal, “The Individual”.
  • The Libertarian Alliance, who work for the creation of a truly free society, have an archive of 700 publications.
  • The National Peace Council coordinate 200 groups across Britain, most of whom are not on the internet. I'm sure they could help you.
  • INNOCENT, who campaign for innocent people in prison, and publish a book by Kevin Christian, called “British miscarriages of justice/wrongly convicted”.
• Whistleblowing support groups often also do anti-bullying support, which can drift into emotive issues like child protection, or less well known ones like bullying in the workplace:
  • Bullytown
    
• The left-wing alternative Press host informative articles:
  • SchNEWS (post-free to prisoners),
  • The Register,
  • Spike!,
  • Red Pepper, and
  • indymedia.
