Myths and Misunderstandings in White Collar Crime uses real world examples to explore the pathologies that hamper our ability to understand and redress white-collar crime. The book argues that several misinterpretations about white-collar crime continue to impede its enforcement, including: its failure to be classified according to degrees of severity in many jurisdictions; its failure to statutorily parse groups of defendants into major and minor players; and the failure of statutes to effectively define crimes, leading to the prosecution of 'unwritten' crimes. Miriam Baer offers a step-by-step framework, informed by theories of institutional design and behavioral psychology, for redressing these misunderstandings through 'code design,' or paying greater attention to how we write, frame, and lay out our federal criminal code, as a roadmap to more coherent and useful laws. A clearer, subdivided criminal code paves the way for a discussion of white-collar crime unmarred by myths and misunderstandings.

This book makes a distinctive and innovative contribution to the study of white-collar and corporate crime through detailed examination of the use, affect, and violation of the corporate social license ? a concept frequently extended to a license to operate. Whilst discrete aspects of corporate social responsibility have found their way into the discourse on business deviance and crime, no single book to date has provided a detailed exploration of social licence through a criminological lens. Here, using an interdisciplinary focus which includes illustrative case-studies and large-scale original fieldwork, Gottschalk and Hamerton explore European, North American, Asian, and global perspectives to identify, position, and reveal the impact of the social license on contemporary conceptions of white-collar and corporate deviance and crime. Corporate Social License: A Study in Legitimacy, Conformance, and Corruption will be of interest to scholars of criminology, law, business management, and sociology along with professionals within allied fields. Petter Gottschalk is Professor in the Department of Leadership and Organizational behaviour at BI Norwegian Business School, Norway. Christopher Hamerton is Deputy Director of the Institute of Criminal Justice Research in the School of Economic, Social and Political Sciences at the University of Southampton, United Kingdom.

"At the height of the pandemic, TV star Ben McKenzie (The O.C., Gotham) was the perfect mark for cryptocurrency: a dad stuck at home with some cash in his pocket, worried about his family, armed with only the vague notion that people were making heaps of money on something he-despite a degree in economics-didn't entirely understand. Lured in by the promise of taking power from banks, possibly improving democracy, and sure, a touch of FOMO, McKenzie dove deep into blockchain, Bitcoin, and the various other coins and exchanges on which they are traded. But after scratching the surface, he had to ask, "Am I crazy, or is this all a total scam?" In Easy Money, McKenzie enlists the help of journalist Jacob Silverman for a caper and exposé that points in shock to the climactic final days of cryptocurrency now upon us. Weaving together stories of average traders and victims, colorful crypto "visionaries," Hollywood's biggest true believers, anti-crypto whistleblowers, and government agents searching for solutions at the precipice of a major crash, Easy Money is an on-the-ground look at a perfect storm of 2008 Housing Bubble-level irresponsibility and criminal fraud potentially ten times more devastating than Bernie Madoff"--

Aktueller könnten die Querverbindungen zwischen Wirtschaft, Moral und Strafrecht in diesem Jahr 2022 nicht sein. Der vorliegende Band misst sie neu ab und spannt einen großen Bogen zu den Erkenntnissen aus der Vergangenheit: Als best of der auf den ECLE-Tagungen geführten wirtschaftsstrafrechtlichen Diskussionen der letzten zwölf Jahre vereint er zentrale Perspektiven aus und auf Wirtschaftsstrafrecht, Ethik, Ökonomie und Politik. Diese Essenz der renommierten Tagungsreihe »ECLE« betrifft in vier großen Abteilungen das Verhältnis von Markt und Moral, die Einhegung der Wirtschaft durch Strafrecht, sie fokussiert ebenso die blinden Flecken des Wirtschaftsstrafrechts wie die rechtspolitisch auch in dieser Legislaturperiode immer noch ungelöste Frage nach einer konsequenten und kohärenten Unternehmensverantwortlichkeit. Jedem Kapitel ist der einschlägige Grundlagentext des Gründers der ECLETagungen – Klaus Lüderssen – vorangestellt, auf den die Autorinnen und Autoren gewissermaßen »antworten«. Auf diese Weise soll post mortem und aus Anlass seines 90. Geburtstages ein Dialog fortgesetzt werden, den unserFreund und Lehrer mit den Referenten, den Tagungsteilnehmern und seinen Lesern im Jahr 2008 begonnen hat.

"Organised crime and financial crime are pressing global problems, increasingly recognized as policy priorities both by national governments and international bodies and corporations. This proudly interdisciplinary collection is built on the premise that these topics are too often artificially separated, both in scholarship and the classroom. Bringing together scholars from law, the social sciences, and the humanities, this book showcases a diverse range of perspectives on these complex and compelling global issues, and the criminal justice challenges that they pose. The themes discussed include: Legal Theory and Procedure; Regulation and Enforcement; Prevention and Punishment; Media Representation and Perception. Readers are encouraged to think outside of traditional disciplinary bounds, and form their own connections and conclusions inspired by the juxtaposition of perspectives rarely seen together in the same volume"--

This work is dedicated to map the modes of thinking and acting of legal professionals who work in white-collar crime. Lawyers, whose decisions generate economic and political consequences, stand at a strategic location between the state and key segments of society. This monograph’s approach is linked to the foundations of the sociology of knowledge, that culture antecedes and anchors social action. It starts by reconstructing the worldviews that legal professionals hold about corruption and its main participants, and then advances to examine decision-making. The author is introducing an innovative dataset comprised of interviews, court records and biographical data to investigate Brazilian lawyers (1985-2021). The study’s qualitative findings show a professional cognitive pattern that is apolitical and technical, and criticizes unskilled people working in the state administration more than businesspeople. The dominant mindset understands corporate-state relations as a self-feeding system that requires qualification and awareness of international trends to counter crime. The decision-making patterns confirm: (i) that prosecutors and judges prioritize the ends, fighting corruption, and use existing legislation and organizational resources to secure verdicts; (ii) the asymmetries between how bribe-payers and bribe-payees are treated. About the author Maria Eugenia Trombini is a researcher at the Max Weber Institute of Sociology conducting work on organizational crime and systemic corruption.
