Abstract

This article deals with the dogmatic and political-criminal problems of the offence of extortion in Peru. According to its typical structure, this type of crime constitutes a special form of abuse of public office and corruption, where the public official, abusing his position, forces or induces a citizen to give him a patrimonial benefit. It also analyses the regulation of the offence in our national legislation, its scope, and main dogmatic problems in the light of doctrine and jurisprudence.
