Crimes and Conduct Disrupting the Country’s Economic Order
Crimes that disrupt the country’s economic order have gained heightened significance in recent years because, beyond inflicting serious damage on national interests and the economic system, a substantial proportion of the perpetrators are influential white-collar individuals. These actors have exploited their positions against the economic interests of the country and the general public, thereby fostering the spread of widespread corruption and social dissatisfaction. Accordingly, one of the main reasons for the lack of effective prevention and enforcement against such crimes must be sought in the weakness of an efficient and coherent criminal policy to address them.
Legal disorder in agreements is the result of misplaced trust and oversimplification.
In a society where the importance of contracts diminishes, the rule of law is weakened — and wherever the law is weakened, heavy costs will eventually be paid. No negligence in this regard comes without a price. These costs do not appear only in courts or international arbitration panels; if major national contracts are involved, they manifest in rising risk premiums, capital flight, weakened public trust, and the erosion of professional ethics.
