Victimology of white-collar crimes

Abstract

By: Majid Ghorchi-baygi[1] and Seyed Mohhamad Hosini[2]     The most criminological researches have focused on conventional violent crimes in recent years. However, we have a little information about victimization of white-collar crime and a few researches have conducted in this area. Critical criminologists are interested in victimology of white-collar crime. They called victim of white-collar crimes as invisible victims. The nature of white-collar victimization is financial although it may lead to serious physical harms. Patterns of victimization in conventional crimes are different to patterns of white-collar crime victimization although these patterns are similar to each other to some extent. Patterns and types of victimization in white-collar crimes are varied by gender, age, and socio-economic class. Beyond the direct economic costs, white-collar crimes have many significant indirect costs which are harmful as well as direct ones.   [1] - Assiatant professor of Criminal Law and Criminology, Law Department, University of Kharazmi.
