AB Over the past several decades, many criminologists have adopted a “life-course perspective” to describe and explain differences in individual offending behavior over time (i.e., trajectories). The core principles of the paradigm focus on understanding the ways in which trajectories are produced and changed by local-life circumstances. While the life-course perspective is usually applied to individuals, in this chapter, we discuss the ways in which adopting a “life-course” perspective can enhance our understanding of corporate crime. We compare and contrast life-course criminology with organizational life-cycle theory, paying critical attention to the conceptual utility of this integration. We then discuss the kinds of data and methods needed to enable empirical exploration of corporate life-course offending, using firm-level offending data to demonstrate the merits of our integrated approach. We conclude by proposing strategies for researching and operationalizing the emergent ideas.
