ARTAZA, Osvaldo. A “Restorative Strategy” in the Area of Criminal Liability of Corporations: A Theoretical Approach. Derecho [online]. 2022, n.88, pp.125-153. ISSN 0251-3420.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/derechopucp.202201.005.

This article analyzes the possible political-criminal benefits associated with the admission of a restorative strategy in the area of corporate criminal liability. To this end, certain shortcomings detected by the specialized literature are addressed, which would be associated with a strategy of reaction to corporate criminality that focuses exclusively on the imposition of disabling sanctions for corporations. In this respect, we will delve into the problem of the lack of knowledge of fundamental interests for the resolution of the conflict, especially that of the stakeholders, and the problem of the possible ineffectiveness of such a strategy in terms of reducing this form of criminality. Then, possible solutions to face the detected problems will be studied, distinguishing between a “reparative” and a “restorative” strategy to determine why the latter could be particularly beneficial for the achievement of the objectives commonly associated with criminal liability of corporations.

Palabras clave : Corporate criminal liability; corporate crime; harm remediation; restorative justice; corporate self-regulation.
