This book represents a unique North-South-East-West comparative review of the state of whistle blowing around the world. It looks as American, Australian, British, Japanese and South African approaches, focusing on what legislative protection and civil society support is available to whistleblowers in the public interest, how these work, and where they fail in practice. The book contains accounts by four whistleblowers from around the world, including Cape Town and the US. It includes an account by Harry Templeton, the whistleblower on Robert Maxwell’s notorious activities at The Mirror Group Newspapers magnet in the UK, and Sherron Watkins, the Enron whistleblower, and legal responses from around the world. The book also intends to document the less reported, and mostly unsung actions of ordinary members of civil society. It intends to contribute to the international debate about whistle blowing and the global anti-corruption agenda. This is a North-South collaborative publication between The Open Democracy Advice Centre (ODAC), in Cape Town, South Africa and Public Concern at Work (PcaW) in London, in the UK. The editors are the respective directors of the two organizations. The book was further supported by the British Council, and a foreword provided by their Chair, Baroness Helena Kennedy QC.
