What is Corporate Criminal Liability about?

## Abstract This overview of corporate criminal liability discusses the origins and history of the doctrine in civil and common law countries, the standard elements for vicarious criminal corporate liability on __respondeat superior__ principles (of an agent acting within scope of authority to benefit the corporation), the current global trend toward an expansion of this form of liability, several specific notable recent cases in the US, Europe, and China, points of intersection with Alien Tort Statute jurisprudence, policy arguments supporting and opposing such liability, and more recent moves toward direct, fault‐based and not merely vicarious liability, as global and regional recognition of such liability has expanded in conjunction with the growth of corporate power and ability to engage in harmful criminal conduct globally.
