Description and Table of Contents
Description
Factors that promote decisions by corporate executives to use illegal, anticompetitive means to achieve corporate goals are examined in this book. Drawing on theoretical concepts based on the study of complex organizations and interorganizational behaviour, the author explores issues of causation related to deviant behaviour in the corporate setting. By defining this deviant type of behaviour, the book adds significantly to the existing literature on white-collar crime in general and, in particular, property-related crime. In addition to a comprehensive quantitative presentation, the author also includes a qualitative approach to the problem with the inclusion of interviews that were conducted with government regulators responsible for antitrust enforcement.
