This book provides a novel criminological understanding of white-collar crime and corporate lawbreaking in China focusing on: lack of reliable official data, guanxi and corruption, state-owned enterprises, media censorship, enforcement and regulatory capacity.
The text begins with an introduction to the topic placing it in global perspective, followed by chapters examining the importance of comparative study, corruption as a major crime in China, case studies and etiology, domestic, regional and global consequences, and concluding theoretical and policy issues that can inform future research.
“The authors … are prolific scholars who have emmeshed themselves in white-collar research and comparative studies, with a particular focus on China. The result is this enlightening, informative, and up-to-date case study of Chinese white-collar crime … . Drawing on a variety of data sources, including published articles, books, reports, and interviews with dozens of academics and criminal justice practitioners across a decade (2009–18), this book is a must-read for students and scholars who are interested in white-collar crime.” (Hong Lu and Shujing Shi, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice, clcjbooks.rutgers.edu, June, 2023)
“This book makes an important contribution to the further study of white-collar crime in China. Those who are interested in Chinese crime problems, particularly for white-collar and corporate crime, will find it valuable and beneficial. … The book is based on case analysis. Readers will be interested in the criteria of how these cases are selected.” (Mengliang Dai, Asian Journal of Criminology, Vol. 18 (1), 2023)
