Abstract : This study examined attitudes on the ethics of bribe taking in four European countries - France, Great Britain, Italy and Germany. Nineteen demographic variables (gender, age, marital status, etc.) were also examined, and most mean scores were found to be significantle different. Although most people thought taking a bribe was unethical, there was some divergence of opinion. Paragragh Headings: 1. Inttrduction 2. Review of the literature 3. The present study 4. Methodology 5.
