La extinción de dominio desde sus principios

El Programa de la Gestión de Finanzas Públicas GFP Subnacional de la Cooperación Económica Suiza – SECO y el Basel Institute on Governance presentan la publicación académica: La extinción de dominio desde sus principios. Esta nueva edición ofrece una perspectiva jurídica rigurosa y actualizada sobre uno de los instrumentos más relevantes en la lucha contra el crimen organizado y la corrupción.

La extinción de dominio, regulada en el Perú por el Decreto Legislativo N.° 1373, se ha convertido en una herramienta clave para la recuperación de activos ilícitos. No obstante, su implementación ha generado debate sobre su compatibilidad con los principios del Estado constitucional de derecho. Esta publicación busca aportar a dicho debate, abordando los fundamentos jurídicos del decomiso sin condena y resaltando la importancia de su aplicación conforme a los valores democráticos y al debido proceso.

El volumen reúne los aportes de destacados especialistas que analizan, desde distintas aristas, los principales retos legales e interpretativos en torno a la extinción de dominio. Entre los temas tratados se incluyen los derechos en disputa dentro del proceso, la aplicación temporal de la norma, la protección del tercero, la autonomía frente a otras decisiones jurisdiccionales, la carga de la prueba, la cosa juzgada, el principio de prevalencia y los alcances de la publicidad y la reserva.

Con este aporte, el Programa GFP Subnacional reafirma su compromiso con el fortalecimiento de las capacidades institucionales y la promoción de una justicia más efectiva y transparente. La extinción de dominio desde sus principios está disponible en formato digital y de libre acceso.

This research paper covers the principles and practice of Extinción de dominio, Peru’s non-conviction based forfeiture law. It is a publication of the Subnational Public Finance Management Programme of the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) – Economic Cooperation and Development division and the Basel Institute on Governance. It offers a rigorous and up-to-date legal perspective on one of the most important instruments in the fight against organised crime and corruption.

Extinción de dominio, a non-conviction based forfeiture law regulated in Peru by Legislative Decree No. 1373, has become a key tool for the recovery of illicit assets. However, its implementation has generated debate about its compatibility with the principles of the constitutional rule of law. This publication seeks to contribute to this debate by addressing the legal basis for non-conviction based forfeiture and highlighting the importance of its application in accordance with democratic values and due process.

The volume brings together contributions from leading experts who analyse, from different angles, the main legal and interpretative challenges surrounding the extinción de dominio law. Topics covered include the rights at stake in the process, the time-limited application of the rule, the protection of third parties, autonomy vis-à-vis other judicial decisions, the burden of proof, res judicata, the principle of prevalence, and issues around publicity and confidentiality.

With this contribution, the Basel Institute and Subnational PFM Programme reaffirm our commitment to strengthening institutional capacities and promoting more effective and transparent justice.
