Over deze leqture:
Wat is witwassen van geld nu eigenlijk? Joras geeft inzicht in deze criminele activiteit. Met een speels gedachte-experiment leert hij je denken als een crimineel: ‘creëer’ geld via het pizzarestaurant van een vriend, gebruik een casino als cover-up of investeer in bitcoins. Hoe creatief moet je zijn? Door kennis over deze praktijken verschaft de sessie tevens inzichten die toepasbaar zijn in de "legale" wereld en tegelijkertijd krijg je kennis over de omvang van het witwassen van geld wereldwijd en wat de gevolgen zijn.
