This initiating monograph provides the first thorough examination
of the concept of white-collar crime online. Applying an
offender-based perspective which considers the central role of
convenience, it seeks to inform, improve and develop the current
literature on cybercrime, whilst paying particular attention to its
founding category within criminology. It argues that white-collar
crime has receded from criminological perspectives on cybercrime in
recent years and that a detailed, rich re-assessment of
white-collar crime in contemporary digital societies is needed.
Following a theoretical introduction, the book develops to discuss,
inter alia, implications for corporate reputation, the various
organizational roles utilized in mitigating external and internal
threats, the unique considerations involved in law enforcement
efforts, and likely future directions within the field.
White-Collar Crime Online recognises the strong lineage and
correlation that exists between the study of white-collar crime and
cybercrime. Using convenience theory within a comparative analysis
which includes case-studies, the book explores both European and
American paradigms, perspectives and models to determine where
white-collar crime exists within the contemporary workplace and how
this might relate to the ongoing discourse on cybercrime. In doing
so it revaluates criminological theory within the context of
changing patterns of business, the workplace, social rules, systems
of governance, decision making, social ordering and control.
White-Collar Crime Online will speak to criminologists,
sociologists and professionals; including those interested in
cyber-security, economics, technology and computer science.
