Abstract

600 Australian & New Zealand Journal of Criminology 48(4) existence of the corporation. Tombs and Whyte argue, ‘The problems caused by cor- porations.. .are enduring and necessary functions of the corporation’ (2015, p. 4), and on that basis they need to be abolished. My cynical side tends to agree. However, we are still left with the problem of the present, of how to deal with what sits in front of us as corporate crime and the pharmaceutical industry, in all its disturb- ing manifestations. Dukes, Braithwaite and Moloney have confronted this head on, not just as academics but as dedicated advocates for improving the ethical foundations of the legal drugs industry. Criticism is easy, constructing a solution less so. This is a powerful book that demands to be read by all those concerned about the health of nations. It is also a call to arms for criminologists to turn a scholarly eye to the plethora of harms and crimes perpetrated by the pharmaceutical industry. Our response to this is long overdue.
