In exploring the criminalization of corporations, this book uses
the landmark "Ford Pinto case" as a centerpiece for exploring
corporate violence and the long effort to bring such harm within
the reach of the criminal law. Corporations that illegally endanger
human life now must negotiate the surveillance of government
regulators and risk civil suits from injured parties seeking
financial compensation. They also may be charged with criminal
offenses and their officials sent to prison.
A revised version of the first edition, titled "Corporate Crime
Under Attack: The Ford Pinto Case and Beyond" -- an endeavor
prompted in part by the Ford Pinto case s twenty-fifth anniversary
and the corresponding recognition of the continuing significance of
the issues this prosecution raised and of the important
developments that have transpired in the intervening years.
In addition to the new, more descriptive subtitle, the book has
been substantially remodeled and new sections added.
