Professor Joshua Kleinfeld explains that in American law “white collar crime” can mean two different things. Individuals who commit a crime through their workplace can be prosecuted but the company itself can also face prosecution. In other countries, only people, not companies, can be held criminally liable. The United States law encourages internal corporate oversight by also holding the company accountable for crimes committed by employees. Joshua Kleinfeld is Professor of Law at Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law. He teaches and writes in three areas: legal and political philosophy; legislation and statutory interpretation; and criminal law and procedure. As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.
