Corruption poses a serious danger to the democratic foundations of each country. The need of an effective legal mechanism for combating corruption is increasingly being interpreted as key criteria for strengthening democratic institutions and introducing modern standards of transparency and democratic control into the governance of society. There are adopted a number of national, regional and international legal anticorruption acts which are particularly important, especially in the context of Bulgaria’s integration processes in the European area. In this connection, ensuring the democratic values in European society represents a big challenge for regulatory claims and capabilities of law with a view to the dynamic development of society. The current survey examines at the main type the development of anticorruption legal framework and aims to provide guidance for optimizing and improving the existing system of effective measures for the fighting against corruption and to clarify its place in the confirmation of democracy.
