Hardback. Condición: New. If "corporations are people too," why isn't anyone in jail?A serious defect in a GM car causes accidents; Enron scams investors out of their money; banks bet on the housing market crash and win. In the race to maximize profits, corporations can behave in ways that are morally outrageous but technically legal.In Capital Offenses, Samuel Buell draws on the unique pairing of his expertise as a Duke University law professor and his personal experience leading the investigation into Enron-the biggest white-collar crime case in U.S. history-to present an in-depth examination of business crime todayAt the heart of it sits the limited liability corporation, simultaneously the bedrock of American prosperity and the reason that white-collar crime is difficult to prosecute-a brilliant legal innovation that, in its modern form, can seem impossible to regulate or even manage.

Capital Offenses invites us to take a fresh look at our legal framework and learn how it can be used to effectively discipline corporations for wrongdoing, without dismantling the corporation.…
