The Idea of Corporate Transitional Justice: Paths to Corporate Criminology in Brazil
The Idea of Corporate Transitional Justice: Paths to Corporate Criminology in Brazil
Criminal Justice Review, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 435-449, December 2021.
The essay aims to exam corporate complicity with authoritarian regimes of the past and contemporary practices for the purposes of developing the body of corporate criminology. The opening of Brazilian criminological research to the role of companies during the military regime shines new lights on corporate accountability and may, when investigating the corporate complicity with authoritarian dynamics, also open new avenues for the transitional justice studies. Especially with regard to the idea of Corporate Transitional Justice, it assumes the need for broader debates about the historical continuum and different forms of business contributions and aspects of harming and victimizing in the corporate field.
