In his 1939 presidential address to the American Sociological Association, Indiana University sociologist Edwin Sutherland voiced concern over the dearth of research on "crime in the upper, or white-collar, class." The term "white collar crime" has since become an established part of our vocabulary. The growth of the modern corporation, the expansion of professional classes, the advent of computer technologies, and the increasing complexity and interdependence of national and international financial markets have brought about changes in the form of crime with which Sutherland was concerned. In response, the study of white-collar crime has become an important field of research in its own right. Research has been sporadic, however, and there is a need to take stock of the scholarship over the years and begin to map out a strategy for the future. Under this grant, a conference will be convened in May of 1990 at Indiana University to assess the field of reserch on white-collar crime fifty years after Sutherland's 1939 address. The purpose of the conference is to address the theoretical, empirical, and practical issues facing the study and control of white-collar crime. Panelists from around the world will convene for three days to (1) review the research which has taken place over the years; (2) provide new research and information which will be useful to both scholars and practitioners interested in the control of white-collar crime; (3) identify gaps in our present state of knowledge and suggest directions for future research; and (4) develop a network of individuals interested in the study and regulation of white-collar crime so as to facilitate research and public policy efforts in this area. The problem of white-collar crime raises important theoretical issues ranging from organizational theories of deviance to micro- level theories of decisionmaking. Organizational traits such as hierarchical structures, reward structures, operating policies and procedures, and codes of ethics integrated with subcultural, opportunity, labeling, and control theories offer exciting possibilities for accounting for differences in criminogenic organizations and their more law-abiding counterparts. This conference will bring together scholars across different disciplines to discuss new research relating to etiology, enforcement strategies, international perspectives and methodological issues which will provide directions for future research in this important field.

1939年，他在美国社会学杂志上发表了总统演讲。 协会，印第安纳州大学社会学家埃德温萨瑟兰 对缺乏关于“犯罪”的研究表示关切， 上层或白领阶层“白色领犯罪” 已经成为我们词汇的一部分 的 现代企业的成长，专业的扩张 课程，计算机技术的出现，以及越来越多的 国家和国际人权文书的复杂性和相互依存性 金融市场带来了变化， 萨瑟兰所关注的犯罪。 在答复时 白领犯罪研究已成为社会学研究的一个重要领域 研究自己的权利。 然而，研究一直是零星的， 有必要对奖学金进行评估， 多年来，开始制定未来的战略。 根据这项赠款，将于1990年5月在 印第安纳州大学评估白领研究领域 萨瑟兰1939年演讲后的50年。 目的 会议的目的是解决理论，经验， 白领学习与控制面临的现实问题 犯罪 来自世界各地的小组成员将召开三次会议， （1）研究所在研究过程中， （2）提供新的研究和信息， 对有兴趣的学者和从业人员都有用， 控制白领犯罪;（3）找出我们目前的差距 知识状况和未来研究方向建议; 以及（4）发展对研究感兴趣的个人网络 以及对白领犯罪的监管，以促进研究 这方面的公共政策努力。 白领犯罪问题提出了重要的理论 问题从组织理论的越轨行为，以微观， 决策层次理论。 组织特征，如 层级结构，报酬结构，经营策略 和程序，以及与亚文化， 机会，标签和控制理论提供了令人兴奋的 解释犯罪成因差异的可能性 组织和他们更守法的同行。 这 会议将汇集不同领域的学者 学科讨论有关病因学的新研究， 执法战略、国际视角和 方法问题，为今后的工作提供方向 在这一重要领域的研究。
