Add your own review!

Overview

Social protection after the crisis looks at the regulation of corporate crime and subsequent social harm that takes into account the economic, political, and social consequences of the economic crisis of 2008 and the austerity measures that followed. With a particular emphasis on environmental, workplace, and food safety, Social protection after the crisis proposes a radical rethinking of regulation to address fundamental conceptual, policy, and practical issues.
