Corporate Crime examines the ever-present problem of white-collar
and corporate crime, not only within the United States but also
worldwide. Should corporations and their employees be held
criminally liable for shoddy business practices? This volume
explores both sides of the question, discussing the nature and
scope of corporate crime, the controversies surrounding it, and the
most promising solutions. How do we define corporate crime and how
do we detect it? Corporate Crime guides readers through the
definitions and concepts as well as the difficulties in detecting,
prosecuting, and punishing corporate wrongdoing. How do
corporations get away with their crimes? This reference examines
both the successes and the failures of government and law
enforcement policies concerning the punishment of corporate crime
and explores leading contemporary proposals for controlling and
deterring it. It is an essential information source for any citizen
of corporate America.
