Description

This book of original writings explores the issue of white-collar crime and the controversies that surround it, focusing on the vastness of state-corporate and white-collar crime, the victimization that results, and the ways these crimes affect society environmentally, politically, economically and personally. Because white-collar criminals are a different breed of con artists than those involved in street crimes, there is a distinct form of policing to go along with them, and this text examines the psychology of both. Race, class, gender and the New World Order all have marked roles in white-collar crime; these roles incite both questions and discussions throughout the book. The authors conduct a thorough investigation of white-collar crime, from definitions and academics, to dangers and costs, to regulations and policies.
