Previous research has found that various historical aspekt, such as the break with the communist past, has led Estonia to the making of better reforms and strategies for anticorruption. The research suggests that the making of better anti-corruption reforms and strategies has contributed to the differences in the corruption levels. However, previous resarch has forgott to also investigate the implementation of the anti-corruption strategies. For if the anti-corruption strategies would have affected the corruption levels they would also have been implemented. Therefore my purpose is to contribute to earlier research by taking a step back and investigate how the strategies function in Estonia and Latvia, to see if there are any differences in the implementation. To answer this question, we investigate GRECOs compliance reports of their anti-corruption strategies. This will help bring clearness to previous research. Thus, the empirical analyses indicate that there do are some differences in the degree of implementation, where Estonia has a higher level of implementation. Nevertheless, there are also some differences in the direction of the strategies that could have affected the implementation.sweKorruption, antikorruptionsstrategier, implementering, Estland, Lettland, GRECOText
