Reviews

'Joe McGrath's study of the regulation of corporate and white-collar crime in Ireland is timely and important...What emerges is an impressive, context-sensitive account of policy change which links legal forms to cultural, social and historical factors in an enlightening and insightful way.' Paul Almond, University of Reading, Dublin University Law Journal 'Not only is Dr McGrath's work topical, it is essential...Dr McGrath's work provides an invaluable record of Ireland's experience of corporate and white-collar crime. It is a fascinating read insofar as it serves to remind us of corporate, and indeed, political, scandals of the past and the inadequacies displayed by the State in responding to them. Dr McGrath deserves to be commended for his sedulous treatment of his subject. This book should be the vade mecum for our Government when considering whether the architecture of enforcement in this jurisdiction is robust. The question that remains is whether any such consideration will be undertaken and, if undertaken, conducted comprehensively.'
