Description: "Much crime remains 'invisible'. Examples include crimes committed by the powerful, environmental crimes, political crimes and crimes which often take place within the private sphere of the home and the domain of work.".

"In this volume a panel of academics explore the nature, type and regulation of invisible crime. In so doing, many of the contributions focus on 'crimes' which are committed at work, the 'victimization' which is experienced while in employment, and the mechanisms of workplace regulation, surveillance and enforcement.".

"Invisible Crimes: Their Victims and Their Regulation will be essential reading for students, lecturers, researchers and practitioners in the fields of criminology, socio-legal studies, law, sociology, social work, business studies and related disciplines."--BOOK JACKET.
