Opis

This is the first book to take a comprehensive look at white collar criminal offenses from the perspective of moral and legal theory. Focussing on the way in which key white collar crimes such as fraud, perjury, false statements, obstruction of justice, bribery, extortion, blackmail, insider trading, tax evasion, and regulatory and intellectual property offenses are shaped and informed by a range of familiar, but nevertheless powerful, moral norms.

Recenzje

'Mr. Green's book admirably clears away much of the conceptual underbrush surrounding the idea of white-collar crime.... "Lying, Cheating, and Stealing" is strong on moral philosophy, not least in the way it illuminates the grey areas of business conduct. ... [it] will be helpful to anyone thinking about such cases [as Kenneth Lay's].'
