dc.descriptionThe main purpose of this book is, thus, to argue that criminology is especially well equipped to understand and research the topic of RM (and its counterpart, research integrity, or RI). Only timidly has criminological research been opening up to try to understand this particular form of deviance taking place inside laboratories, scholars’ ofces, and editorial boardrooms, rather than on street corners or in problematic neighbourhoods. It will be argued that criminology holds the conceptual and methodological tools to research this form of professional misconduct, especially by building on the study of occupational crime and deviance, as well as as organizational crime and deviance, usually a segment of the broader feld of white-collar crime. Like other criminal and deviant behaviour, RM is assessed in conjunction with written or unwritten rules of conduct, with such rules being applied to specifc groups of people interacting with their proximal and distant environment. Similarly to other criminal and deviant activity, RM may originate negative social reaction, in which case specifc episodes and/or actors are selected by formal and informal social control mechanisms to sufer sanctions. In parallel with growing claims for the criminalization of some forms of RM, formal and informalsanctions have been applied to actors considered to have committed diferent forms of RM. Te deterrent or stigmatizing efects of such sanctions are being discussed, as well as their consequences in recidivism and prevention of future acts. Potential harms caused by fraudulent research have also been debated.-
