Abstract
The relationship of social morals and laws becomes particularly crucial and problematic with regard to foreign bribery. This is because of three reasons: Foreign bribery is embedded in social actions, has a transnational character, and is mostly committed in business contexts. Therefore, the author reflects on the relationship of social morals and laws. The author argues that even though social morals and laws have to be distinguished on a conceptual level, it is wise to work towards a factual synchronicity. In this context, the author provides some suggestions for linking social morals and anti-bribery laws more closely. However, this linkage becomes especially problematic regarding extraterritorial criminal liability. Nevertheless, after a critical examination the author concludes that the reproach of moral imperialism is not substantial.
