The issues of corruption, which penetrates into any sphere of public life, are occupied by politicians and legal scholars of all countries. This article attempts to outline the system of legal regulation of corruption in international law and, in particular, in the penal system.The aim of the work is to identify possible ways to combat corruption in the Russian Federation, based on international experience. To achieve this goal, a number of tasks are being solved, namely, the identification of the range of entities operating in the penal system at the international level and the legal basis for their activities, the analysis of the achievements of the largest public institutions regulating this area, the determination of corruption trends in this area and measures to combat them.This study is based on the research of Russian specialists of the past five years. One of the main sources of practical experience in combating corruption is the report of the international non-governmental organization International Penitentiary Reform, one of the largest analytical documents of the last five years, detailing the specific problems of the penal system.The study is carried out within the framework of an institutional approach, in view of the fact that in each country of the world the fight against corruption is carried out within the framework of a body.
