Apuntes de análisis comparativo de la legislación chilena y peruana en materia de Responsabilidad Penal de las Personas Jurídicas

Abstract

The regime of criminal responsibility of legal entities broke the old Latin maxim “societas delinquere non potest”. The responsibility of legal entities is now a reality in the Chilean and Peruvian legal systems, reflecting the political will to implement better practices in the relationships between the State and private entities, encouraging companies to self-regulate and control the activities of their employees and representatives.
