Vol. 15, Nº 27 (Julio 2019), Art. 15, pp. 520-548 [http://politcrim.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Vol14N27A15.pdf] The European Union Criminal Policy against Corruption: Two Decades of Efforts La política criminal de la Unión Europea contra la corrupción: dos décadas de esfuerzos Demelsa Benito Sánchez Lecturer of Criminal Law – University of Deusto (Spain) [email protected] Abstract Corruption has been in the agenda of the European Union for decades due to its devastating effects on the political and economic systems of the EU Member States, and on the European Union itself. Therefore, with the aim of combating corruption, the European Union has adopted a wide list of legal instruments since the middle of the nineties that Member States shall implement and enforce. This paper offers a critical review of the main instruments, from the first initiatives, adopted already two decades ago, until the most recent ones, focusing on the criminal law obligations they impose on the Member States. Likewise, it analyses the implementation and enforcement of such documents by Member States, with the final purpose of assessing if the European Union criminal policy against corruption is working correctly or, by contrast, needs to be improved. Keywords: Corruption, criminal policy, European Union, Member State, public official. Resumen La corrupción ha estado presente en la agenda de la Unión Europea desde hace décadas debido a sus devastadores efectos sobre los sistemas políticos y económicos de los Estados Miembros, y sobre la propia Unión Europea.

Introduction Our document is concerned with the theme of international cooperation in criminal matters. We focus on a relatively new way of cooperation, which is still in conformation, but already has some special attributes that separate it from the traditional forms. The protection of financial interests of the European Communities has developed together with the integration itself. The community budget as special infringement subject needs special action by the Member States and the EC acting together, in cooperation with each other. This is different from the usual forms of mutual assisstance and develops new ways of cooperation protecting supranational interest utilizing –as we try to present it in our document- means of substantive and procedural law and the case law of the European Court of Justice.

Henryk Niewodniczanski 1900 - 1968 25 years ago, on 20 December 1968, Professor Henryk Niewodniczanski, the founder of our Institute, died. To commemorate this event, we held a small session to recall his achievements as a scientist, teacher and administrator. Professor Niewodniczanski, a brilliant experimental physicist, began his research in the early twenties in the field of atomic optics. He discovered the forbidden dipole magnetic transition in Pb atoms. His interest in nuclear physics was aroused by Lord Rutherford of Nelson in whose laboratory he worked in the middle 'thirties. After World War II Professor Niewodniczariski initiated research in nuclear physics at the Jagellonian University. His enthusiasm and great organizational talent resulted in the establishment of the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Krakow under his directorship.
