AB "Criminology on Trump is a criminological investigation of the world's most successful outlaw, Donald J. Trump. Over the course of five decades, Donald Trump has been accused of sexual assault, tax evasion, money laundering, non-payment of employees, and the defrauding of tenants, customers, contractors, investors, bankers, and charities. Yet, he has continued to amass wealth and power. In this book, criminologist and social historian Gregg Barak asks why and how? This book examines how the United States precariously maintains stability through conflict in which groups with competing interests and opposing visions, struggle for power, negotiate rule breaking, and establish criminal justice. While primarily focused on Trump's developing character over three quarters of a century, it is also an inquiry into the changing cultural character and social structure of American society. It explores the ways in which both crime and crime control are socially constructed in relation to a changing political economy. An accessible and compelling read, this book is essential for all those who seek a criminological understanding of Donald Trump's rise to power"-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN E913.3 SN 9781032117928 SN 9781032117904 K1 Trump, Donald : 1946- K1 Trump, Donald : 1946- : Ethics K1 Trump, Donald : 1946- : Psychology K1 Unternehmer K1 Politiker K1 Staatsoberhaupt K1 Kriminalität K1 Lebensverlauf K1 Gesellschaft K1 Usa K1 Presidents : United States : Biography K1 Businesspeople : United States : Biography K1 Real estate developers : United States : Biography K1 Corporations : Corrupt practices : United States K1 Criminal Behavior : United States K1 Political ethics : United States K1 United States : Politics and government : 2017-2021 K1 Trump, Donald : 1946- : USA : Verbrechen : Gesellschaft : Plutokratie
