White-Collar Crime: An Opportunity Perspective analyzes
white-collar crime using the opportunity perspective, which assumes
that all crimes depend on offenders recognizing an opportunity to
commit an offense. The authors explicate the processes and
situational conditions that facilitate opportunities for
white-collar crimes and the likelihood of being victimized by
white-collar crime. In addition, they offer potential policy
solutions that will mitigate this persistent and widespread social
problem while being realistic and balanced in their treatment of
the difficulties of control. With this fourth edition, Benson and
Simpson have enlisted the aid of two young white-collar crime
scholars, Jay P. Kennedy and Melissa Rorie, who bring new areas of
expertise to the book that enhance its analytical depth and
coverage of both white-collar crime and the opportunity
perspective. New up-to-date case studies are included along with
examinations of recent investigations into white-collar crime and
its control. These timely updates reaffirm that this rigorous yet
accessible book will remain a core resource for undergraduate and
early graduate courses on white-collar crime.
