摘要

相对而言，很少有理论犯罪学家因其对公共政策的持久影响而被认可，因此，重新考虑一位影响力持久的学者是有启发性的。唐纳德·克雷西写了一篇理论驱动的总统委员会文章，启发了《受骗子影响和腐败组织法》（RICO）。他还提出了一种“值得尊敬的犯罪”理论，解释了为什么这项法案被更广泛地向下引导，以摧毁种族有组织的犯罪集团，而不是向上起诉由芝加哥市长理查德·戴利和美国总统唐纳德·J·特朗普领导的精英政治阴谋。我们介绍了戴利和特朗普的案例研究，说明了克雷西理论驱动的学术的持续相关性和被低估的潜力。

The President and the Boss's son: Prosecuting the crimes of America's most powerful

Relatively few theoretical criminologists are recognized for their lasting impact on public policy, and it is therefore instructive to reconsider a scholar whose influence endures. Donald Cressey wrote a theoretically driven Presidential Commission essay that inspired the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO). He also advanced a theory of “respectable crime” that explains why this act has more extensively been directed downwards to dismantle ethnically organized criminal groups rather than upwards to prosecute elite political conspiracies led, for example, by Chicago Mayor Richard M Daley and US President Donald J Trump. We present case studies of Daley and Trump that illustrate the continuing relevance and underappreciated potential of Cressey's theoretically driven scholarship.

期刊介绍： Consistently ranked in the top 12 of its category in the Thomson Scientific Journal Citation Reports, Theoretical Criminology is a major interdisciplinary, international, peer reviewed journal for the advancement of the theoretical aspects of criminological knowledge. Theoretical Criminology is concerned with theories, concepts, narratives and myths of crime, criminal behaviour, social deviance, criminal law, morality, justice, social regulation and governance. The journal is committed to renewing general theoretical debate, exploring the interrelation of theory and data in empirical research and advancing the links between criminological analysis and general social, political and cultural theory.
