Whistleblowers: Voices of Justice (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Framing the global “Whistleblowers’ Revolution” as a vital response to democratic malaise, this volume examines the socio-legal dynamics surrounding the exposure of illegal or unethical practices in both the public and private sectors. The analysis covers innovative legal frameworks and protective regimes across multiple jurisdictions while also closing the divide between theory and practice. The volume brings together contributions from distinguished scholars and practitioners alongside firsthand accounts from whistleblowers, resulting in a holistic approach that evaluates existing and prospective measures aimed at empowering truth-tellers and confronting entrenched cultures of silence.

The volume is structured to connect theory with lived experience. It moves from a transnational socio-legal analysis of global conditions (Part 1) to critical jurisdiction-based assessments across multiple countries (Part 2). The work then culminates in a series of firsthand narratives (Part 3), offered by insiders whose accounts reveal the significance, personal costs, and institutional consequences tied to speaking truth to power.
