Description and Table of Contents

Description

Can a corporation commit a crime? If so, who in the organization is to be held responsible and how does a criminal justice system, designed to process individual criminals, cope with the criminal corporation? This book explores both the theoretical and practical problems of bringing criminal sanctions against corporate offenders through the courts and regulatory agencies, and offers some of the latest legal, historical and sociological research on the subject of sanctionning corporate wrongs.
