Additional text

This edited collection elegantly presents a comprehensive and multifaceted account of the modern intersection of work and criminal law ... This book will appeal to Common Law labour lawyers, criminal lawyers, and those interested in how the long-held norms of one area of the law can be found, applied, and even improved in another ... This "miscellany of legal curiosities" is a masterful curation of works which skilfully demonstrates the rich seams to be mined where criminal law and labour consolidate under political pressure to create "criminality at work". This book provides what I expect will be an enduring foundation for much scholarship to come.
