| Sumario: | A major challenge in conducting quantitative analyses in the field of corporate environmental crime is the lack of a readily accessible data set. At least in the United States, currently the best available datasets regarding environmental crime generally are produced and disseminated by government agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). However, these datasets have multiple limitations that force researchers to “scour” through the informational landscape for other primary and secondary sources to conduct more robust quantitative analyses. In this article, we document the attempts researchers have made to create broader datasets for corporate environmental crime analysis, with the hope that it will assist researchers working to create useful bodies of data for analysis. |
