Fundamentos esenciales para el re-dimensionamiento de la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas en el Ecuador.

Abstract

Criminal liability of legal persons is a very valid discussion in the criminal law field. There are many criteria for and against making companies criminally liable. Both positions try to find the basis of validity on the side they defend. Ecuador is among the countries that have taken the position in favor of making companies criminally responsible but that is not enough to achieve what is intended in Ecuador, which is nothing else than to establish a culture of good business practices in every company of the country.
