解释个人违法犯罪行为的尝试有着悠久的历史,它已越过了生物学、社会学和其它学科的界线。然而,解释以组织为基础的违法行为的历史却很短。与个人犯罪学不同,组织犯罪学或法人犯罪学只是在最近才得到研究者和决策者们系统的研究。这个发展姗姗来迟的主要原因是组织行为的复杂性。 Attempts to explain individuals’ criminal behavior have a long history of crossing the boundaries of biology, sociology and other disciplines. However, the history of interpreting organization-based offenses is short. Unlike personal criminology, organized criminology or corporate criminology has only recently been systematically studied by researchers and policymakers. The main reason for this late development is the complexity of organizational behavior.
