Download or read book Dangerous Ground written by Donald J. Rebovich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, if businesses were caught dumping waste, it was treated more as a nuisance than as a crime; the common images of the criminal and the dumper were worlds apart. In Dangerous Ground, originally published in 1992, Donald J. Rebovich closes this perceptual gap, providing essential information about and analysis of hazardous waste crime and the hazardous waste criminal. This paperback edition includes new material, noting important changes since the book's original publication. Rebovich finds that the criminal dumper is usually an ordinary businessman. The author's research discovers that hazardous waste disposal crimes are more likely driven by the cost of legitimate disposal options, rather than by organized crime figures. It is also a world where one's criminal position is often determined by industry connections and personal relationships. Dangerous Ground places the criminal dumping culture in perspective by detailing the basics of hazardous waste generation, its legitimate disposal, government responses, and efforts to control illegal disposal. An epilogue concludes with an analysis of new threats to our environment posed by gas and oil drilling, declining federal prosecutions, progressive sentencing for offenders, and recommendations on how the global community can effectively address international environmental crime.

Download or read book Environmental Crime written by Steven C. Drielak and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2019 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will provide invaluable assistance to the new criminal environmental investigator in the highly regulated and complex field of criminal environmental investigations. This type of criminal investigation comes with a very steep learning curve. Every activity that takes place at an environmental crime scene involving a hazardous substance is strictly regulated by numerous laws and mandated procedures which must be met for a prosecutor to pursue a successful criminal prosecution. Written in a format which will bring the new criminal environmental investigator through this lengthy learning process, its goal is to supply the criminal environmental investigator with the comprehensive procedures and techniques necessary to conduct a successful criminal environmental investigation that involves the release to the environment of a chemical, biological or radiological hazardous substance. The first issues addressed are those related to the specialized training, equipment, and resources needed to safely and effectively conduct this unique type of criminal investigation. This is followed by several chapters related to environmental crime search warrants, which includes such subjects as establishing probable cause, search warrant planning and search warrant execution. In addition, the criminal environmental investigator is provided with the hazardous evidence collection protocols necessary to collect chemical, biological and radiological evidence in their various forms and matrices. This work goes beyond simply describing "how" to collect hazardous evidence: it informs the reader "why" the hazardous evidence must be collected in a specific manner to meet the many challenges that can be expected to be brought forth by the adversarial criminal justice system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crimes Against the Environment explains the seriousness of the threat posed by pollution, its roots, how it has evolved, how it differs across the planet, and how society has endeavored to create and enforce laws directed at its control. Rebovich and Curtis begin with an overview of hazardous waste, the industries that produce toxins, available methods of waste treatment, and the legal environment of environmental crime. They examine the forces driving criminal behavior and the methods offenders adopt, as well as protections against polluters and their effectiveness. The book concludes with an examination of environmental justice in the United States and globally, and looks ahead to the future of crime control and prevention in this arena. Case studies and discussion questions offer further perspective on these challenging issues of environmental integrity. This text serves undergraduate or early-stage graduate students majoring in criminal justice, environmental science, sociology, and political science, and could also serve as a resource for professionals in environment-related occupations.

Download or read book Space Time and Organized Crime written by Alan A. Block and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most research on organized crime reveals only a limited sense of its history. Our understanding suffers as a result. Space, Time, and Organized Crime shows how arguments about the sources, consequences, and extent of crime are distorted as a consequence of crude empiricism. Originally published in Europe in 1991 as Perspectives on Organizing Crime, this book is a timely blend of history, criticism, and research. Fully one-fourth of this new edition contains hitherto unpublished materials especially relevant to the American experience.Space, Time, and Organized Crime describes the background of Progressive Era New York. It then broadens its scope by exploring the changes in drug production and distribution in Europe from about 1925 to the mid-1930s. Block addresses such little explored issues as the ethnicity of traders, the structure of drug syndicates, and the impact of legislation that attempted to criminalize increasing aspects of the world's narcotic industry prior to the Second World War. He then goes on to present organized crime's involvement with transnational political movements, intelligence services, and political murders. Space, Time, and Organized Crime concentrates on ambiguities evident in organized crime control, such as the U.S. Internal Revenue Service's protection of criminal off-shore financial interests, and the contradictions found in America's war on drugs.Space, Time, and Organized Crime demonstrates that the essential nature of crime in the twentieth century (regardless of where it takes place) cannot be understood without sound historical studies and a more sophisticated criminological approach. Block's unique blend of stratification in a historical context will be of special interest to historians, sociologists, criminologists, and penologist.
