Editorial: Global corporations in a world of local market specifics: how to create a ''glocal'' identity of compliance

It is our great pleasure to introduce you to the inaugural edition of Compliance Elliance Journal, also known as CEJ. This project has been a labor of love over the past year and we are excited to publish some thought-provoking works. But before we present the pieces, we would like to introduce CEJ and share our vision. We initially began our collaboration through our academic work in developing crosscultural educational programs. Along the way, we realized that we shared a mutual interest, research, and scholarship in the area of compliance and ethics. Correspondingly, we decided that an open-access journal would be a fitting way to expand our vision of making the global compliance dialogue more easily accessible. It is our sincere wish to create an atmosphere encouraging the exchange of ideas between business and legal practitioners, academics, and students from around the world while also creating a platform to combine practical solutions to problems facing the compliance industry with scientific findings
