| Description: | This book is the first attempt to establish economic crime as a new sub-discipline within criminology, covering fraud, corruption, bribery, money laundering, price-fixing cartels, intellectual property crimes, as well as public, private, and global responses. This book is the first attempt to establish ''economic crime'' as a new sub-discipline within criminology. Fraud, corruption, bribery, money laundering, price-fixing cartels and intellectual property crimes pursued typically for financial and professional gain, have devastating consequences for the prosperity of economic life.

This book is an essential resource for students, academics and practitioners engaged with aspects of economic crime, as well as the related areas of financial crime, white-collar crime and crimes of the powerful. |
