Definition

  • The first modern criminologist in the United Kingdom (UK) to seriously consider issues related to white-collar crimes is Michael Levi. From as early as the 1970s, Levi's empirical works on fraud, money laundering, and organized crime have served to earn him the moniker of “father of white-collar and organized crime of contemporary Europe.” Michael Levi (1948–) was born and raised in northern England during a time of significant social and economic changes.
