Read local, national or international newspapers (not youtube, facebook, or government sources such as DOJ or FBI or their newsletters, etc.) and identify 2 current cases of corporate crime and 2 current cases of state crime or state-corporate crime (dated this month-the past four weeks only). Provide the source in text (author name, year and if quoting, page) and full reference including URL in your reference page.
Examples of acceptable newspapers and journal stories include AP news, Reuters, the Guardian, The Independent, Toronto Star, The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, Politico, The New Yorker, USA Today, The Economist, PBS, NPR, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Al Jazeera, etc.
This is not like the search in journals where you can use the key term or find corporate or state crime listed in the article’s title, here, you must be able to understand and identify cases regardless if they are labeled as such or not. Recall from previous chapters, COPs are rarely framed as crimes or harms by the media or politicians, so it will be your job to do so.
Discuss the crime/harm-do not just copy and paste the article-it should be in your words only. This should be roughly 4-6 pages. DO NOT use occupational crimes. Your job is to identify them as a crime regardless of the lack of being called a corporate crime or state crime.
