The volume provides a leading, contextual and cross-disciplinary analysis of legal responses to whistleblowing. Whistleblowing is a complex phenomenon that has been a challenge to numerous institutions at a national, international and supranational level. Efforts to address and protect whistlblowers have increased in recent years, although the development of a comprehensive legal framework has not always been possible. The whistleblowing phenomenon has been addressed directly through legislation and indirectly through numerous other measures and public policies. Different jurisdictions have relied on different areas of law to enhance the protection of whistleblowers, including measures from areas such as criminal, labour, corporate and administrative law. Taken together, contributions in this volume provide a comprehensive and original analysis of the emerging multi-level legal framework to protect whistleblowers.
