White Collar Crime and Its Victims: The Social and Media Construction of Business Fraud

This book draws on interviews and survey data from Britain, the US, Australia, the Third World, and Central and Eastern Europe to present a thoughtful overview of contemporary business fraud. Just how much fraud exists today? How does it affect different sectors of society? And how and why does the news media portray such fraud in a certain way? Levi and Pithouse bring a critical intelligence to these queries.
