Download or read book Shoplifting written by Kerry Segrave and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-10-27 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shoplifting is a practice that has been engaged in for centuries, but it was only after the Civil War that the prevalence of shoplifting and societal awareness of it, became significant. In the 1860s the typical shoplifter was from the lower classes; by 1900 it was an upper-class woman who shoplifted from a huge department store "because" she was a "kleptomaniac", and in the 1960s it was teenagers stealing for kicks. Shoplifting: A Social History looks at the activity of shoplifting for the last 140 years: the types of people singled out as the principal offenders, retailers' ambivalent responses to the activity, selective prosecution, the utilization of high-tech antitheft devices, and suing shoplifters to recover costs. Also examined are media accounts which have often used exaggerated numbers when discussing the activity and the effect of private justice on the offense. Discrepancies in treatment of lower-class women versus "respectable" women shoplifters will be of interest to women's studies scholars.
Download or read book Effective Retail Security written by Denny Van Maanenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1995 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective Retail Security addresses the needs of both the student and the retail markets by being written in an accessible style outlining the dangers of retail loss, the opportunities and psychology that encourage it, and the strategies for eliminating it. While retail loss, or shrinkage as it is commonly referred to, can be a major contributor to the erosion of the profitability of any business, there is much ignorance within even the retail industry about the extent of the problem and how to overcome it. The psychology behind much theft and shoplifting can be simple, and there are many simple strategies which even the small retailer can implement to significantly reduce the opportunity for much stock loss. Besides being of concern to the small retailer, these issues are addressed within various tertiary courses in retail, stock management, and retail operations. The author has included a number of cartoons to keep the tone light, but the text is to the point and full of relevant, applied advice and strategies. The applied nature of much of the advice will be of value particularly to the small (and larger) retailer, while the readily understood nature of the writing will be useful to students of retailing who in many cases will be school graduates lacking relevant work experience to provide a context for their studies. written in an accessible style extensive use of cartoons to illustrate crucial points addresses the needs of the student and the retail market

Download or read book The Steal written by Rachel Shteir and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-06-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of shoplifting, revealing the roots of our modern dilemma. Rachel Shteir's The Steal is the first serious study of shoplifting, tracking the fascinating history of this ancient crime. Dismissed by academia and the mainstream media and largely misunderstood, shoplifting has become the territory of moralists, mischievous teenagers, tabloid television, and self-help gurus. But shoplifting incurs remarkable real-life costs for retailers and consumers. The "crime tax"-the amount every American family loses to shoplifting-related price inflation-is more than $400 a year. Shoplifting cost American retailers $11.7 billion in 2009. The theft of one $5.00 item from Whole Foods can require sales of hundreds of dollars to break even. The Steal begins when shoplifting entered the modern record as urbanization and consumerism made London into Europe's busiest mercantile capital. Crossing the channel to nineteenth-century Paris, Shteir tracks the rise of the department store and the pathologizing of shoplifting as kleptomania. In 1960s America, shoplifting becomes a symbol of resistance when the publication of Abbie Hoffman's Steal This Book popularizes shoplifting as an antiestablishment act. Some contemporary analysts see our current epidemic as a response to a culture of hyper-consumerism; others question whether its upticks can be tied to economic downturns at all. Few provide convincing theories about why it goes up or down. Just as experts can't agree on why people shoplift, they can't agree on how to stop it. Shoplifting has been punished by death, discouraged by shame tactics, and protected against by high-tech surveillance. Shoplifters have been treated by psychoanalysis, medicated with pharmaceuticals, and enforced by law to attend rehabilitation groups. While a few individuals have abandoned their sticky-fingered habits, shoplifting shows no signs of slowing. In The Steal, Shteir guides us through a remarkable tour of all things shoplifting-we visit the Woodbury Commons Outlet Mall, where boosters run rampant, watch the surveillance footage from Winona Ryder's famed shopping trip, and learn the history of antitheft technology. A groundbreaking study, The Steal shows us that shoplifting in its many guises-crime, disease, protest-is best understood as a reflection of our society, ourselves.
