They weigh the strengths and weaknesses of each country's approach according to five criteria: stringency and timeliness of the regulatory decision, balancing of risks and benefits by decision makers, opportunities for public participation, and the interpretation of science in regulatory decision making. The Canadian approach is exemplified by closed decision making, case-by-case review that relies heavily on expert judgement, and limited public debate about the scientific basis of regulatory decisions. In contrast, regulatory science in the United States is characterized by publication of lengthy rationales for regulatory decisions, reliance on standardized procedures for risk assessment, and controversy surrounding the interpretation of scientific evidence. 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zCanada 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zUnited States 606 $aHazardous substances$xLaw and legislation$zCanada 606 $aHazardous substances$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aUNSPECIFIED$2bisac 606 $aHealth Policy 606 $aHazardous Substances 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aEnvironmental Pollutants 606 $aToxic Actions 606 $aSocial Control Policies 606 $aChemical Actions and Uses 606 $aSocial Control, Formal 606 $aPolicy 606 $aHealth Care Economics and Organizations 606 $aSocial Sciences 606 $aDrug Therapy 606 $aSociology 606 $aHealth Care 606 $aLaw, General & Comparative$2HILCC 606 $aLaw, Politics & Government$2HILCC 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aHazardous substances$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aHazardous substances$xLaw and legislation 615 7$aUNSPECIFIED 615 2$aHealth Policy 615 2$aHazardous Substances 615 2$aPublic Policy 615 2$aEnvironmental Pollutants 615 2$aToxic Actions 615 2$aSocial Control Policies 615 2$aChemical Actions and Uses 615 2$aSocial Control, Formal 615 2$aPolicy 615 2$aHealth Care Economics and Organizations 615 2$aSocial Sciences 615 2$aDrug Therapy 615 2$aSociology 615 2$aHealth Care 615 7$aLaw, General & Comparative 615 7$aLaw, Politics & Government 676 $a363.7/00971 700 $aHarrison$b Kathryn$f1958-$01521198 701 $aHoberg$b George$f1958-$0925179 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782724603321 996 $aRisk, science, and politics$93791412 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05009nam 2200745 450 001 9910819240303321 005 20230912131538.0 010 $a1-282-05644-1 010 $a9786612056444 010 $a1-4426-7469-5 024 7 $a10.3138/9781442674691 035 $a(CKB)2420000000004045 035 $a(OCoLC)666921702 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10200910 035 $a(CaPaEBR)417561 035 $a(CaBNvSL)thg00600787 035 $a(DE-B1597)464462 035 $a(OCoLC)944178176 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781442674691 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4671493 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11257203 035 $a(OCoLC)958571548 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)musev2_104735 035 $a(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/k9xnbb 035 $a(schport)gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/6/417561 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4671493 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3251355 035 $a(EXLCZ)992420000000004045 100 $a20160922e19981994 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$a"Everybody does it!" $ecrime by the public /$fThomas Gabor 210 1$aToronto, [Ontario] ;$aBuffalo, [New York] ;$aLondon, [England] :$cUniversity of Toronto Press,$d1998. 210 4$d©1994 215 $a1 online resource (395 p.) 300 $aIncludes index. 311 $a0-8020-6828-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aContents -- Preface -- Part I: Crime by the Public: The Issue in Context -- 1 Introduction -- 2 'Pictures in Our Heads': Our Stereotypes of the Criminal -- 3 Is Everyone Doing It?

Thomas Gabor challenges the prevailing stereotype of the criminal by documenting the extent to which ordinary citizens (those who are not habitually in conflict with the law) violate the law, exhibit dishonesty, or engage in actions harmful to their fellow citizens. He shows that so-called respectable citizens account for a large proportion of many kinds of crime: theft, fraud, tax evasion, assault, sex offences, business scams, political and corporate crime, environmental crime, technological crime, and mass lawlessness such as looting and vigilantism. He also discusses crime by police and other authorities in the justice system. Case studies provide concrete examples and raise crucial questions about law enforcement. By discussing the justifications and excuses ordinary people provide for their transgressions, Gabor draws a parallel between those justifications and the ones provided by chronic or hard-core criminals. He shows, through experimental and other evidence, that members of the public are often not firmly committed to society's laws or the legal system. Using existing theories in conjunction with an original, interdisciplinary theoretical model, he shows why criminality is so widespread, and why it varies from person to person, and from one milieu to another. He shows why some crimes are more prevalent than others, and why some people are more immune to being labelled and processed as criminals within the criminal justice system. He concludes with a discussion of approaches for dealing with widespread criminality. 606 $aCriminal behavior 606 $aCriminal behavior$zCanada 606 $aCriminal behavior$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast 607 $aCanada$2fast 608 $aLivres numeriques. 608 $ae-books. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCriminal behavior. 615 0$aCriminal behavior 615 0$aCriminal behavior 676 $a364.3 700 $aGabor$b Thomas$01050498 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819240303321 996 $a"Everybody does it!"$94009147 997 $aUNINA
