Leap, Terry L., 1948- author. Dishonest dollars : the dynamics of white-collar crime / Terry L. Leap. Ithaca, New York ; London : ILR Press, 2007. 1 online resource (256 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index. Frontmatter -- Contents -- Preface -- Introduction: The Big Picture -- 1. What Influences Organizational Crime and Corruption? -- 2. The Many Facets of White-Collar Crime -- 3. White-Collar Criminals: Risks and Rationalizations -- 4. The Elusive Impact of White-Collar Crime -- 5. Responses to White-Collar Crime -- Conclusion and Future Directions -- Appendixes -- Notes -- References -- Index. In an environment where corporate scandals fill the headlines and ethics courses have suddenly become standard fare in business schools, Terry Leap offers welcome insights into and useful ways of thinking about a critical problem that permeates our society. His main contribution is an integrative model of white-collar crime, which smoothly incorporates influences from sociology, psychology, public policy, and business. As he explains the process that occurs across the many different categories of crimes within organizations, he finds that there are more similarities than differences between "criminals in the suites" and "criminals in the streets."Leap's definition of crimes within organizations and the people who commit them are laid out in his first chapter. He then goes on to discuss the causes of and events surrounding white-collar crime, types of crimes and criminals, the decision-making processes of white-collar criminals, and the impact of these crimes. His concluding chapter predicts future trends in corporate crime, including an explanation of why we are likely to see more crime in health care. Throughout, Leap presents numerous specific examples and cases-from famous meltdowns such as Enron and WorldCom to less-publicized incidents including a weight-loss franchisee mislabeling doughnuts as low fat and a CEO of a South Carolina regional transportation authority misusing taxpayer money for lavish meals, personal expenses, and world travel.
