Abstract

The money laundering crime is developed in the context of risk society in which organized crime uses the facilities of the global financial system to expand its ilicit gains. In this perspective, the supra-individual legal interests grow in relevance, since macrocriminalty exceeds the limits of individual rights. In this scenario, the economical criminality takes place and in order to provide answers to new presented risks a Criminal Economic Law is developed. Therefore, one of the consequences of the globalized risk society is the criminalization of money laundering.
