Omtale White-collar criminals
White-collar crime is financial crime committed by upper class members of society for personal or organizational gain.The aim of this book is to provide a large sample and thorough analysis of the characteristics of white-collar crime criminals. Gottschalk's research is based on a sample of 179 convicted white-collar criminals in Norway. The author emphasizes the need for internal and external actions in the detection, prevention and strategic combat of white-collar crime. Gottschalk presents a roadmap for combating financial crime, generally, and white-collar crime, specifically. The roadmap focuses on knowledge, since crime that is understood can be detected and prevented. The key principle is the creation of a knowledge base to comprehend guidelines, audit, control and ethics.
