Abstract

The rising of financial crime and decreasing of ordinary crime is a highly contemporary, political and scientific subject and there is a huge need for people to understand these new forms of crime. Since the traditional paradigms, including criminology and sociology are not able to touch this new issue, we have the concept of white-collar crime. It is very important to understand economic crimes. And it is still quite useful to understand crimes of the power, crimes of cooperation, crimes of rich people and so on. But financial crime is much more than just white-collar crime, and to understand it, we must go into the fields of economics, finance and politics.

Therefore, we need to be very much interdisciplinary, going beyond our traditional knowledge. so, it is a big challenge.
