Abstract

<p>Occasionally, companies engage in long-term corruption that violates laws and regulations. This paper examines and analyzes the ethical, rational, and social perspectives of normalizing deviant behaviors, using an automobile company’s fuel economy fraud as a case study. The factors that lend legitimacy to organizational behaviors that violate laws and regulations are highlighted. Our analysis results reveal that corruption within an organization is inherited as a social act and becomes the norm.</p>
