For more than three decades, rational-choice theory has reigned as
the dominant approach both for interpreting crime and as
underpinning for crime-control programs. Although it has been
applied to an array of street crimes, white-collar crime and those
who commit it have thus far received less attention. Choosing
White-Collar Crime is a systematic application of rational-choice
theory to problems of explaining and controlling white-collar
crime. It distinguishes ordinary and upperworld white-collar crime
and presents reasons theoretically for believing that both have
increased substantially in recent decades. Reasons for the increase
include the growing supply of white-collar lure and non-credible
oversight. Choosing White-Collar Crime also examines criminal
decision making by white-collar criminals and their criminal
careers. The book concludes with reasons for believing that
problems of white-collar crime will continue unchecked in the
increasingly global economy and calls for strengthened citizen
movements to rein in the increases.
