Summary
"This handbook re-frames the usual discussion of white-collar crime to focus more on the definitional ambiguity in the white-collar crime term. The only thing white-collar crime researchers agree on is that white-collar offenses are incredibly different from those traditional crimes that are the priority for law enforcement and criminal justice scholars. The Handbook compiles all of the major issues in this area (e.g., offenders, theoretical explanations) in one place, but attends to nuances within those areas by distinguishing between the four main types of crimes falling under the ambiguous white-collar crime phrase (occupational crime, corporate crime, government crimes, and state-corporate crimes). Previous handbooks have not successfully handled these dual objectives of being both broad in scope (with the perspectives and topics covered) but also specific (in terms of providing clear distinctions within the paradigm). In addition, the current book elicited chapters discussing international white-collar crime scholarship as well as emerging issues in the field, and also sought to diversify perspectives by including newer scholars in the field"-- Provided by publisher.
"The primary strength of the handbook is that it will cover a broad range of topics from many different perspectives, accomplished using nationally and internationally recognized experts in the field. Despite this broad coverage, though, this book will provide clarity for scholars of white-collar crime by clearly distinguishing what is known about specific types of crime within this broad paradigm. In addition, this book will be written to be more approachable for readers at the undergraduate level, practitioners, and the public--but will also have information relevant for advanced academic scholars. Finally, this book will recruit manuscripts from young scholars (as well as established scholars) and from international researchers in countries not often represented in this field. Specifically, we include chapters examining white-collar crimes in Africa and Central/South America--these continents are woefully underrepresented in the field of white-collar crime"-- Provided by publisher.
