Assignment - Criminal Justice White Collar Crime Discussion
Description - Corporate violence differs from conventional interpersonal violence in a number of ways. It is indirect (resulting from corporate policies and actions), and its effects are typically removed in time from the implementation of policies. Such violence results from a large number of individuals acting collectively, motivated by the desire to maximize profits or minimize losses, and has traditionally inspired a far more limited legal and justice system response.
