Sumario:Over the past two decades the will to fight corruption has increased in society at large. Although their discussion some years ago was an inconvenience to public debate, today it is almost impossible to argue convincingly in favor of corruption. The specter of corruption haunts modern politics and economics, threatening the legitimacy of states and markets, while encouraging repetitive and incomplete attempts to cleanse and legitimize the political-economic order. Thus, the fight against corruption is one of the fundamental pillars on which almost all modern governments, from the most authoritarian to the most democratic, base their claims of legitimacy. For this reason, there remains the need to redouble efforts to strengthen States through actions aimed at protecting human rights, achieving political and social stabilization, ensuring an effective and uniform distribution of national wealth, and ensuring democracy and sustainable development in the countries.
