This article aims to examine whether the so-called «right to lie» exists within the framework of the accusatory criminal procedures. Some defend this right as a necessary extension of the accused’s basic right not to self-incriminate; others, however, argue that the right to remain silent or not to actively cooperate with the prosecutor’s investigation does not imply the possibility of telling lies. Thus, once the accused decides to speak, they are bound to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Based on a review of the discussion among some of the most relevant thinkers who have addressed the issue of lying (for example, Kant, Constant and Augustine of Hippo), this paper will defend a conciliatory or eclectic claim on the right to lie. We will argue that the debate often turns blurred because moral and epistemic levels are confused when formulating a concept of...

La presente tesis “El Régimen de Copropiedad y Acceso al Crédito Hipotecario en el Predio San Antonio – Zona Registral X de Cusco” ha tenido como objetivo general determinar de qué manera el régimen de copropiedad y el sistema financiero, limitan el acceso a la hipoteca por parte de los copropietarios del predio San Antonio, inscrito en la Zona X de Registros Públicos. El acceso al crédito demostró ser una de las principales causas de la mejora de la calidad de vida de las personas, convirtiéndose así el crédito con garantía hipotecaria en una de las mejores armas para el desarrollo de las personas. Esto se debe en gran medida a los beneficios que trae el mismo, como es el acceso a montos altos de crédito, tasas de interés bajas y apertura de líneas de crédito paralelo, entre muchos otros. Pero estos grandes beneficios no sé vienen presentando entre los copropietari...

This paper critically analyzes the viability of chemical castration as a penalty for sexual offenders from a bioethical and legal perspective. It argues that this measure is contrary to fundamental principles such as human dignity, personal autonomy, and informed consent, all of which are essential in any medical intervention that modifies a person's body. To this end, all the bills submitted to the Congress of the Republic of Peru between 2016 and 2024 proposing the incorporation of chemical castration as a criminal sanction for sexual offenders have been reviewed and analyzed. The analysis identified eight bills presented during the period under study, all of which exhibit serious normative deficiencies, lack of a clear legal framework, and violate constitutional guarantees. Furthermore, it is noted that these legislative proposals respond more to a logic of social revenge and punitive...
