Abstract

The perspectives that political scientists and lawyers are having about the future Democratic State of Law in the Society of Risks have been more pessimistic than optimistic, especially when the phenomenon of corruption is taken into account for the purposes of thinking Democracy itself. Therefore, the present text intends to discuss how this equation has been given between State, Democracy and Corruption, what are its most fragile points and what we can do to overcome the negative aspects that it presents. To this end, we will seek theoretical and pragmatic elements that propose objective forms and instruments for such scope.

Keywords:
State; democracy; corruption; Society of Risks; market
