The topic is about corruption prevention, because prevention is one the best ways, to combat with this phenomenon. The investigation of corruption prevention is leaned on the new view: seperating it into proactive and ractive corruption prevention. Firstly, corruption prevention is presented as the part of crime prevention, later we can see independent parts of corruption prevention. Then is given a short view of anticorruption political situation in Lithuania: from the legislation of laws till institutions combating with corruption. There are presented the conceptions of the measures of corruption prevention and proactive and reactive corruption prevention.

We can say, that the biggest part of these measures is suitable for both parts of corruption prevention. The last part the work is for generalizing the criminological investigation (the assesing of experts) and improving the measures of corruption prevention. Finally there are given suggestions how to change and make better every measure of corruption prevention.

Using a panel data set spanning from 2005 to 2012 and drawn from 35 Sub-Saharan African countries, this paper examines the relative impact of corruption on the inflow of foreign direct investment. This study is motivated by the recent influx of political and media attention on the African continent that is poised to receive billions of dollars in investment over the coming years. It is argued in this paper that there is no significant link between the two variables. There did appear to be a negative skew meaning higher levels of perceived corruption resulted in less FDI inflows, while few countries returned with a positive relationship.
