Abstract

This article refers primarily to the internationalization of criminal law from a broad perspective. This phenomenon is closely related to the consequences arising from the globalization of neoliberal economic orientation in various areas of social context, including the criminal policy. To venture into this subject, the author uses a case: the “money laundering”, which she asserts that supranational rules that integrate it, build an expansive and authoritarian system of repression when it is transferred to internal national legal systems where it generates significant tensions with the guarantees and the rights of liberty attached to the social and democratic State of Law. To illustrate this last point it briefly describes the legal regulations of Spain and Colombia.
