| Summary: | "Theft, deception, bribery, rogue trading and money laundering present massive and apparently insuperable problems for governments worldwide. On a national and international scale, these types of activities may have social, economic, and political repercussions. This new book is primarily concerned with the impact of these activities upon private individuals. The text analyses the position of the victim, the fraudster, recipients of property and accessories. The focus is upon the civil law aspects of fraud and the increasing significance of money laundering legislation and the law of human rights." "The main theme of this book is an examination of the extent to which fraudulent activity triggers special rules that are exceptions to the general principles of civil law."--BOOK JACKET. |
