Corporations benefit society in important ways: they develop new technologies and more efficient methods of mass production, and they make significant contributions to the economy. But corporate crime and corruption can also be harmful; together they cost investors and taxpayers an estimated $200 to $600 billion each year. This is a catch-22 for both lawmakers and citizens. What should be done with corporations who violate the law? Should corporations be held responsible for crimes committed by their executives? What is the best way to control and deter this type of crime?
Richard D. Hartley is assistant professor of criminal justice at Texas A&M International University, Laredo, TX.
