Abstract
Based on previous research (Gottschalk, Explaining white-collar crime: the concept of convenience in financial crime investigations, Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2016), this book has made a novel contribution to the development of convenience theory as a framework to understand CEOs in white-collar crime. The framework integrates a number of well-known theories from criminology and other fields to explain white-collar offenses in terms of economical motive, organizational opportunity, and deviant behavior.
