Description
Summary:This paper addresses the concept of state-corporate crime with the goal of providing a research agenda to stimulate research talks about the production of corporate crime through the interaction between business corporations and state agencies. After presenting the literature review on the topic, we structured the research agenda for the Brazilian context, based on the sub-classification of state-corporate crime: (1) state-facilitated crimes and (2) state-initiated crimes. Following Burrell and Morgan's (1979) typology of sociological paradigms, we articulated the two classifications with two perspectives (critical and instrumental), resulting in four focal points represented in the quadrants: (1) permit regimes, (2) poor state regulation, (3) criminal status, and (4) police state.
