white crime  

Définition

  • Understanding the idea of “White crime” requires not only an appreciation of modern statistics on crime commission but a broader perspective on the history and definition of “crime.” White Americans are, by some limited measures, less crime prone but have historically engaged in a host of “crimes” that are ignored or downplayed by official tallies and definitions. While it would be inappropriate to speak of criminality as stemming from genetic qualities essential to being White, it would be equally inappropriate to ignore the role of history and social situation in explaining and accounting for the entire reality of White crime.
