Topic A: Prevention of and fight against corruption
Introduction
From a general perspective, corruption is a term that could be
understood as an "abuse of authority/power for personal gain." This
understanding of the notion of corruption is used by the UNDP and that makes
it easy to comprehend what corruption is within a political organization, a
company, or a public, national or international institution. This large concept
includes a series of modalities as well as forms that corruption can take, as the
concept can be linked to a specific corrupt act, which is identified by the types
of crimes used in laws and also international agreements (bribery,
embezzlement, fraud, etc).
It is said that corruption has been so profound and traditionally present
in the region that during last few years the visions that attributed corruption to
a cultural background in Latin America began to be widely accepted. There
are traditional phrases used by the region’s population to describe the
existence of corruption: from the well-known “today for you, tomorrow for me”
in Chile, to “the idiot that God forbid” in Nicaragua. On a more political level,
the expressions “no one withstands being shot by 50 thousand pesos” and “to
my friends everything, to my enemies the law,” are well-known in the region.
Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is not a poor region, but it does have
many poor. The economic activities are mainly secondary and tertiary.
Economically, it is the third richest region in the world, the principal economies
are Brazil, Mexico and Argentina, Colombia and Peru. However, the poverty
5

LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
of the region amounts to 174 million people, roughly 30% of the population
(in those 30%, almost half are underage).
LAC is one of the most unequal regions in the world. In terms of countries,
there are differences concerning the GDP per capita ranging from $15,260 in
Chile to $1,370 in Haiti. The inequalities are even deeper within the countries
themselves, as 48% of income belongs to the richest 10% of the population,
while the poorest 10% receive solely 1.6%. LAC is also the region with the
greatest inequality in land distribution. In addition, only 0.9% of students from
the poorest quintile graduate from college and only 50% of the children that
start primary school finish. The First Regional Human Development Report of
UNDP stated that the inequality in this region is so high and so persistent that,
combined with low social mobility, it becomes inherited from one generation
to another.
The region aspires to be democratic but harbors governance problems.
For twenty years, the majority of the countries in the sub-continent lived in a
democracy, and the citizens had the right and access to basic civil liberties
and free press. There are, however, doubts about those governments’ stability
and ability to meet the needs of their populations. According to the Second
UNDP Report on Democracy in Latin America, the region had to face many
difficult challenges that have led to an important popular dissatisfaction with
democratically elected leaders. Amongst the complaints: insufficient
economic growth, too many inequalities and inefficient legal systems and
social services, complaints resolving in the unrest and undermined confidence
in electoral democracy. Today, repression of civil liberties are abound in Latin
America.
Statement of the Problem
The Interregional Seminar on Corruption in Government, held under the
auspices of the United Nations in 1989 identified impunity as an underlying
element of various forms of corruption. This form of corruption is universal and
has harmful effects on the economies of all countries but particularly in
developing countries. Today, this form of corruption is developing on a global
scale. Internationally, it is harmful to the economies of the countries individually
affected and, moreover, amplifies the imbalances caused by the world
economic order as a whole.
The corrupted and the corrupter are not accomplices: each is the author of a
different crime, subject to its own processes and penalties. Moreover,
4
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
corruption must be distinguished from influence peddling, that one
individual exercises over others to persuade them to refrain from complying
with their obligations. The corruptor and the corrupted can be civil servants,
agents or representatives of the State, private individuals or elected officials.
Corruption thus creates a dual responsibility: the corrupted (the passive
subject) is just as responsible as the corrupter (the active subject). This dual
responsibility causes both parties to be liable to punishment. Corruption can
also engage the responsibility of the State if the corrupter organized it through
the structure of their bodies.
Corruption erodes the rule of law and creates a discriminatory treatment
between citizens. Democratic institutions must therefore not only create
internal rules of transparency and probity, but also internationally promote
mechanisms in that direction. In this sense, weak institutions and governance
are reflected through the figures of Transparency International, whereas the
poorest and highest levels of inequality countries are more vulnerable to
corruption.
The 2006 report of Transparency International concludes that the police is the
sector most affected by bribery, mainly in Africa and Latin America.
Furthermore, reliance on public managers as agents of solving the problem of
corruption is very low, joining distrust in political parties and parliaments.
In Latin America, according to the results of Transparency International, the
perception of corruption by sector of society negatively affects the political
parties and parliaments. This signals a profound impact on trust and legitimacy
of democracy in the region. However, it should submit more detailed indicators
that reflect the diversity of the problem. One of the main indicators to gauge
corruption is the percentage of those who claim to have known or know
someone in your family who paid a bribe to get something. The cost of bribery
in Latin America affected by occupational sector reached an average of over
450 Euros in medical services. This is followed by payments in the judicial system
and finance that can reach around 200 Euros. Subsequently there are
payments given to the police, education system, registry and permit services,
ending with public services. The report highlights that the amounts mentioned,
in the case of the poorest, pose insurmountable obstacles to ensure legal and
health basic services (Transparency International, 2006).
This reflects a loss of confidence in the State and democratic institutions by
individuals and communities. This is also compounded by criminal groups and
gangs who are changing their ways of operating as social cohesion is
5
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
impaired, causing various networks within the criminal world. All this is
contributing to a complex scenario that must be tackled through international
cooperation.
Transparency International Corruption Index, 2014
The Perceptions Index of Transparency International. Corruption includes a
scale of 0-100 showing in ascending order the social perception of
transparency and reliability of the population in each country. Therefore, the
higher the digit on the scale, the greater the social perception of transparency
and reliability, which is interpreted as a decrease in the perception of
corruption, on the contrary, the smaller the scale digit increases this negative
perception.
Corruption often leads to peddling and lack of transparency, but varies from
one country to another, it erodes confidence in the institutions and weakens
the normative order of society, which is a breeding ground for criminal
violence. When corruption becomes systemic, affecting the stability of
democratic institutions, the rule of law erodes and corrodes economic growth
and competitiveness.
With regard to governance, the weight of corruption leads to loss of
confidence in institutions and in the weakening of the regulatory order across
the social fabric. Also the lack of efficiency of government policies, or the
inability of the new democratic governance to reduce poverty and inequality
(after more than two decades of restoration of democracy in many countries
of Latin America), makes a significant amount of governments and
democratic institutions lose their support as a result of dissatisfaction
government performance.
6
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
The information provided by the Latinobarómetro (LB) for 2003, which surveys
a large number of countries in the region, is illustrative. Confidence is
particularly low for the institutions most directly linked to political power: the
judiciary (33%, ranging between 52% and 15% depending on the countries),
Congress (28%, with similar fluctuations) and political parties (19 %, in this case
with a more homogeneous assessment between countries). It is noteworthy
that 13% of respondents expressed distrust in all persons and institutions, a
pattern that is accentuated among people of indigenous origin.
Modernization of the state apparatus and public service is slow, discontinuous
and uneven across countries, which is still a prevalent influence in peddling
and cronyism, and the lack of professionalism and dedication to service. In
addition to that, lack of trust in institutions is associated with the difficulty in
state exercise functions of control and supervision, inward and outward.
Despite the variety of bodies, mechanisms and laws that have been created
against corruption, there is a tendency to concentrate such resources in the
executive branch, with lack of funds and resources to effectively perform its
functions.
The United Nations Convention against Corruption takes over the fact that
corruption involves vast quantities of assets, which may constitute a significant
proportion of the resources of states and threaten political stability and
sustainable development. Similarly, the instrument recalls that illicit personal
enrichment can be particularly damaging to democratic institutions, national
economies and the rule of law.
The rule of law is defined as the rule of a constitutional system by which the
exercise of any public authority is subject to the law and is not only a value in
itself but a necessary condition for peace, development and inclusion social,
among others.
The richness of the approach of the rule of law allows the fight against
corruption and is addressed in the context of strengthening democracy, full
respect for human rights and the search for greater social justice.
Significant Actors and Instruments
United Nations Convention Against Corruption
The United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) was approved by
the General Assembly in October 2003. The Convention focuses on five areas:
7
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
prevention, criminalization and law enforcement measures, international
cooperation, asset recovery, and technical assistance and information
exchange. UNCAC aims to eradicate trading in influence, abuse of power,
and corruption in private sector.
(http://www.unodc.org/unodc/en/corruption/index.html?ref=menuside)
The Global Organisation of Parliamentarians Against Corruption
This Organisation is dedicated to combating corruption and promoting good
governance throughout the world. It has managed to help raise awareness of
corruption and its implications and also provides information to combat
corruption.
(http://gopacnetwork.org/)
Transparency International
This organisation ensures that witnesses and victims of corruption are heard. It
works hand in hand with governments, businesses, and civilians to eradicate
corruption in any of its forms (bribery, abuse of power, etc…). It’s effective in
more than 100 countries and supports seven values: transparency,
accountability, integrity, solidarity, courage, justice and democracy. It is also
the organisation that publishes updated indices of corruption and rankings for
countries all around the globe. (https://www.transparency.org/)
Relevant UN treaties and resolutions
The United Nation’s Eighth Congress about Crime Prevention and Delinquent
Treatment took place in La Habana, Cuba from the 27th August to the 7th
September 1990, during which, the resolution titled “Corruption in public
administration” (A/CONF.144/28/Rev.1) was approved. In December 2001, in
Buenos Aires, eight meetings took place where 56 States where present.
Points a Resolution Should Address
The United Nations Convention Against Corruption contains measures to
combat corruption. In the convention, an entire chapter is dedicated to the
prevention of corruption because once corruption is implanted, its suppression
is only possible in the long-term; no immediate solutions can effectively
eradicate it. It focuses on measures of prevention for the private and public
sectors. Among these measures: placing anti-corruption bodies in election
periods to foment and demand financial transparency in the campaigns and
in the elections themselves. Others are the promotion of transparency and
accountability in specific areas of the public sector, expecting a certain
conduct from public servants. Furthermore, it states that seeing as preventing
8
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
corruption in the public sector requires the involvement of the whole
society, public awareness should be raised, as well as the involvement of
community-based organizations and non-governmental organizations. The
UNCAC also has the faculties to oblige States to establish offenses against
corruption, like the criminalization of bribery, the embezzlement of public
funds, the obstruction of justice, money laundering, both in public and private
sector.
It also highlights the importance of an international and multilateral
cooperation between Nations to prevent, investigate and prosecute
corruption. It furthermore recommends and support the gathering and sharing
of any information or evidence that could be used in court. Nations are also
urged to implement measures to seize, trade, freeze and confiscate any
corruption process.
Asset recovery is a fundamental principle of the Convention, and an excellent
measure for developing countries to implement, as resources are needed for
the reconstruction and rehabilitation, since high levels of corruption most likely
sabotaged national wealth. These measures will not only reduce corruption,
but will also be able to transmit an important message to corrupt officials; there
will be less possibilities of hiding illicit assets. All these measures should be taken
into account when writing a resolution as they are the most likely to be
implemented and to work on the long run.

Topic B: Fighting the Illicit Trade in Small Arms
and Light Weapons in all its aspects
Introduction
Small arms are designed for personal use, while light weapons are
designed for the use of a group of people. Examples of small weapons are
revolvers and self-loading pistols, rifles, submachine guns, assault rifles and light
machine guns. Light weapons include heavy machine guns, some types of
grenade launchers, portable anti-aircraft and anti-tank guns as well as
portable launchers of anti-aircraft missile systems. The majority of small and light
weapons would not be a lethal kind of ammunition. Therefore, ammunition
and explosives form an integral part of small arms and light weapons used in
conflicts. They include cartridges for small arms (bullets), shells and missiles for
light weapons, hand grenades and anti-tank mines, land-mines, explosives
and mobile containers with missiles or shells for anti-tank and antiaircraft
systems which are not automatic. One of the main problems related to small
arms and light weapons is the ease with which these may be obtained in many
parts of the world. SALW are predominantly internal "weapons of choice" in
current conflicts, as they are relatively cheap, deadly, portable, easy to hide,
easy to handle and may be used by children as young as 10 years in fighting.
SALW are illicitly traded in exchange for hard currency and goods such as
diamonds and other precious stones, drugs and other contraband products.
This is done by armed gangs, criminals, mercenaries and terrorist groups with
nuclear weapons which are illicitly trafficked and used. The accumulation of
small arms and light weapons itself does not cause the conflicts in which they
are used. Their availability, however, aggravates conflicts, as it increases the
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
10
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
number of casualties as well as the duration of violence. SALW encourage
the pursuit of violent and not peaceful solutions to the conflict therefore
creating a vicious circle of insecurity. Consequently resulting in even greater
demand and use of such weapons.
Definition of Key Terms
Establishing: Creating and maintaining an organisation.
Measures: A course of action that, when completed, will eventually
accomplish a goal.
Combat: To take action to be the opposing force to reduce or stop
something from happening.
Eradicate: Metaphorically fight back with the intention of winning and
wiping out all further traces of (something).
The Illicit Trade: The illegal exchange.
Conventional Arms: Weapons that are commonly used that do not
possess the same ability as that of an atom bomb or a nuclear bomb;
these are generally the usual small arms and light weapons along with a
few more powerful weapons such as the rocket launcher.
Illegal And Unauthorised: Not allowed by federal law as well as not
having sufficient consent.
Embargo: An official ban on trade to a country.
Statement of the Problem
Practically the entire United Nations organisation deals with direct and indirect
consequences of recent armed conflicts fought mostly with such weapons.
The SALW are increasingly used as primary instruments of violence in internal
conflicts that the United Nations is concerned about as these are causing
many deaths and displacement of citizens around the world. The
consequences of the use of SALW also consume a lot of resources of the United
Nations. Many of these conflicts have caused heavy casualties in the affected
populations, mostly civilians and primarily women and children.
The excessive and destabilizing accumulation and transfer of small arms and
light weapons is closely related to the increased incidence of internal conflicts
and high levels of crime and violence. Accordingly, it is a matter of legitimate
concern to the international community. While some regions have been more
affected than others, the phenomenon is truly global in nature, so that causes
concern to the United Nations. With regard to the global organisation itself, the
ease with which small arms and light weapons are obtained have made them
the target of United Nations peacekeepers and personnel. The peacekeepers
cannot completely disarm warring factions because sometimes these groups
11
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
hide their best weapons or, as an ‘insurance’ in case hostilities resume,
only deliver the old and unusable weapons.
Development projects of the United Nations and many donor countries are
damaged, if not destroyed, when groups equipped with these weapons
ransack towns and villages. Mediators and UN negotiators in peace processes
are forced to return to the negotiating table when one or more factions
decide that they can rather get onto the battlefield than the negotiating
table. It is also common that control armed groups and refugees move under
the protection of the United Nations; children become victims and slaves of
the warring factions, who are forced to become fighters or porters. Armed
gangs often confiscate or control the humanitarian aid provided by the United
Nations. There is also an increased number of violations of the arms embargoes
imposed by the United Nations Security Council because of the illicit trade in
small arms and light weapons.
The United Nations has, since the mid-1990s made the issue of small arms and
light weapons a priority on the international political agenda. The organisation
has promoted an awareness of the problems posed by these weapons. To this
end, it has created several expert groups, particularly the Panel of
Governmental Experts on Small Arms (A / 52/298), the Group of Governmental
Experts of the United Nations on Small Arms (A / 54/258) and the group of
experts on the problem of ammunition and explosives (A / 54/155), all to study
the nature and causes of the accumulation and transfer of small arms and light
weapons and recommend ways and means to prevent and reduce them.
States, regional organisations and nongovernmental groups rely heavily on the
reports of these groups.
The United Nations has also addressed the issue of small arms in the context of
other issues such as the protection of civilians in armed conflict, the Security
Council's role in the prevention of armed conflicts, children and armed conflict
as well as disarmament, demobilization and reintegration of former
combatants in an environment of peacekeeping.
On the ground, the United Nations has collected and destroyed weapons in
several of its peacekeeping operations. They have also carried out in Albania,
a pilot project of ‘weapons for development’, in which they have collected
weapons from the civil society in exchange for development incentives for
communities such as roads and bridges.
The Secretary General of the United Nations has a personal interest in the issue
of small arms and light weapons. In his millennium report, the Secretary General
noted that the control of the proliferation of illicit weapons was a necessary
12
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
first step towards the non-proliferation of small arms. He argued that SALW
should be controlled by the states, which must answer for their transfer. In a
time when the international community prepares for the 2001 conference,
which will be a milestone in the history of the United Nations and the first major
United Nations conference on disarmament since 1987, the Secretary General
has urged States members to take advantage of the Conference "to start
taking serious actions that will curtail the illicit traffic in small arms”
Country Positions
Latin America: The volatile region of Latin America has seen an increase of
SALW and the illegal trade of small arms as a consequence of the rise in
criminal activity in the local region. Countries through which the small arms
trade route intersect include Colombia, Panama and Guatemala and once
the SALW enters the region through the gateways of these countries, it is
distributed across the entire region. It is crucial for the regional governments of
Latin America to take measures that reduces the small arms trade and thus in
future, completely prohibits the act of this illegal trade. South-East Asia: A
significant catalyst for the increase of SALW that became evident in the region
of South-East Asia was the Vietnam War in 1975. Additionally, to fighting this
illicit activity, the South-East Asian countries will continue to cooperate and find
solutions, especially the transportation of SALW through sea routes. Sub
Saharan Africa: The Sub Saharan Africa-Sub-Saharan is a melting pot of
different religions and ethnicities that over the past decades have given birth
to major regional conflicts such as the Rwandan civil war. Any major conflicts
has volatile actors that seek to solidify its ideals and thus this can lead to then
acquiring various forms of SALW. Even though, the regional governments wish
to seek peace and prosperity in the region and stop this illegal trade, many
wealthy elitists seek the opposite and thus use conflicts as an opportunity to
gain wealth and power through the trade of illegal small arms. Middle
East/Arab Nations: The recurring trend here is that small arms trade grow
because of different conflicts that occur in different regions and there is no
exception when it comes to the Middle-eastern/Arab-nations. The U.S.
invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan distributed SLAW across the region and thus
their acquirement of those weapons by local insurgents have promoted their
local authority and power. Their actions are a reaction to the invasions which
further cause destabilisation in the region. Furthermore, many existing conflicts
such as the rise of ISIS in Syria and different rebel groups and major military
powers fighting ISIS provide an easy platform for small arms trade to grow. The
regional government ultimately wants to restrict foreign influences in the local
region and also, further cooperation wants to see a resolution being passed
13
LONDON INTERNATIONAL MODEL UNITED NATIONS 2016 .
that overall restricts any kind of external foreign influences. Europe: While
compared to other regions, the European area is seems very stable however
instability in regions such as Chechnya and the recent Russian invasion of
Crimea has given rise to different guerrilla rebel groups that further promote
the trade of SALW. Strong organisational agencies that already tackle the
trade of SALW will look towards further increasing their effectiveness on these
matters. Additional Western Powers: Countries like USA, Canada, and England
have recently urged the governments of developing countries, especially
those in Africa, to work together with neighbouring countries in order to
prevent the Illegal Small Arms Trade and the escalation of present conflicts.
Questions a Resolution Must Answer
Strengthen and develop standards for global, regional and domestic
ranking in order to strengthen and improve the coordination of efforts to
prevent and control the legal trade in small arms and light weapons in
all its aspects;
Develop agreed international measures to prevent and combat illicit
trafficking and manufacturing of small arms and light weapons as well
as to reduce the accumulation of excessive and destabilising transfers
of such weapons throughout the world, paying particular attention to
regions where they are ending conflicts and where it is urgent to find
solutions to serious problems of proliferation of small arms and light
weapons;
Generate throughout the international community the political will to
prevent and combat illicit transfers and manufacturing of small arms
and light weapons in all its aspects and to raise awareness about the
nature and seriousness of the interrelated problems arising from the
trafficking and manufacturing small and light weapons and the
excessive and destabilising proliferation and spread of these weapons;
Promote the sense of responsibility of States with regard to export,
import, transit and retransfer of small arms and light weapons
