Pre-Owned Corporations and Criminal Responsibility (Paperback) 9780198259473

This timely book looks at philosophical, cultural, and psychological factors to consider whether corporations should be made subject to criminal liability. Wells raises such issues as why it is difficult to convict a corporation of manslaughter and how corporations should best be punished. Public perceptions of transport disasters such as the capsize of The Herald of Free Enterprise are discussed, and the system of regulation and control of corporate harm is analyzed. This work will be of great interest to teachers, scholars, and advanced students of criminology, criminal law, and company law. Contributor: Celia Wells
