White Collar Crimes
By:
- Synopsis
- White Collar Crimes (Privileged Class Deviance) explores the nature, causes, types, and control mechanisms of non-violent crimes typically committed by individuals of high social status in the course of their professions. Authored by legal experts from the Usha Jaganath Law Series, the book defines white-collar crimes through various lenses such as corporate fraud, professional misconduct, official corruption, and socio-economic offences. It delves into Indian and global perspectives, judicial responses, and includes landmark reports and legal provisions. The content is structured as per the Karnataka State Law University syllabus and is enriched with solved university question papers and practical problems. The book distinguishes white-collar crimes from traditional crimes and emphasizes the need for strict laws, dedicated courts, and public awareness. It also introduces concepts like clinical jurisprudence and critiques existing legal frameworks for their inability to adequately punish elite offenders. Designed in lucid language, it aims to assist law students, advocates, and aspirants of judicial and bar exams in understanding, analyzing, and effectively responding to white-collar criminality in modern society.
