This book seeks to address many of the current shortcomings in the field of white-collar criminology by proposing a new universal definition for the academic subject, whilst demonstrating how this corresponds to legislative offences in practice. It addresses the relative lack of knowledge about the perpetrators of white-collar crime by presenting new analysis of data from a global survey of over 5,400 corporations on the individual characteristics of offenders.
It also reviews existing criminological theories and applies them to white-collar crime to develp a new conceptual framework that seeks to account for this form of offending behaviour. Lastly, it explains how established offender profiling techniques can be adapted and utilised in conjunction with the new data presented and concepts put forward, to produce white-collar criminal profiles that can be used proactively by organisations in the development of cutting-edge financial crime prevention and detection techniques.

Описание: Norman Bethune (1890-1939) was a man who had everything, and yet had nothing. Although he had achieved international prominence as a surgeon, he was unhappy in his personal life and deeply frustrated by a failed attempt to introduce medicare to Canada. An uncompromising humanitarian in search of a cause, Bethune became immersed in the Spanish Civil War. In Bethune in Spain, Roderick Stewart and Jesus Majada recount Bethune`s achievements in Spain and the events that led to his decision to assist the Loyalist forces. The narrative contains Bethune`s letters and reports, some of them reproduced here for the first time, as well as newspaper articles, and interviews with him. It covers his creation and operation of a mobile blood transfusion unit, his rescue of fleeing Loyalist civilians during the Malaga-Almeria road tragedy, and his efforts to aid children orphaned by the War. It also deals with the gruelling public-speaking tour Bethune undertook on his return to Canada in 1937 to plead for intervention in support of democracy in Spain and to raise awareness of atrocities committed against civilians by the fascist-backed Spanish Nationalists. Illustrated with photographs from Bethune`s seven months in Spain, Bethune in Spain is a poignant portrait of an early advocate for universal health care, an unwavering communist, and a crusader for the Spanish Republican cause.
