Nowadays, it`s pandemic in the anethic and dehumanized society, which is ruled by antivalues. In Peru, corruption was not registered in the Tahuantinsuyo empire. It began in the Colony when the conquerors introduced it into our society; and it has continued through the Republic period until our days. It has become a serious problem to our spiritual health, with a devastating impact in every field of our social reality, until it became a factor of destabilization of the state and ungovernability. It presents a , dysfunctional psicosocial profile of Peruvians; defines corruption as a serious spiritual disturbance, in which the individual suffers of a lack of conscience of the damage caused to his fellowmen.
