“…La principal variable del desarrollo económico de un país según los entendidos en materia económica es el ingreso de sus habitantes, desde el punto de vista económico e integrando el nivel de bienestar de un país, el PBI per cápita es una buena aproximación [6,7]. Actualmente según datos del Banco Central de Reserva del Perú (BCRP) [8]…”

The objective of the research was to determine the relationship between fixed investment in infrastructure and Peruvian economic development during the period from 1997 to 2020. To this end, the research was quantitative, correlational and of non-experimental design, using public statistical sources and the subsequent application of the nonparametric statistic Kendall's rank coefficient. The results found allow us to conclude that fixed investment in infrastructure (engineering contribution) has a strong relationship with economic development taking into account its social (GNI index), economic (PIB per capita) and humanistic (HDI) components.

“…Particularly in the Latin American region, studies on corruption remain relevant (Lagunes et al. , 2019) and have been linked to a number of variables, for example, to economic growth (Azam, 2022; Fernand et al. , 2022) violence and insecurity (Chainey et al.…”

PurposeThis article aims to report on the development and validation of a bribery measurement index for the business sector, which, based on institutional theory, seeks to overcome the limitations of traditional measurements, recognizing the dynamics that originate the phenomenon and identifying process components.Design/methodology/approachTo construct the index, correlational and principal component analysis techniques were used, as well as rigorous statistical tests, validating the instrument in a sample of 2,963 companies in Latin America, including Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico and Peru.FindingsThe result was an instrument composed of two dimensions: (1) anti-bribery game rules, composed of regulations knowledge and anti-bribery efforts, and (2) bribery as a perceived habit, allowing an objective representation of reality due to its internal consistency, concurrent and discriminant validity.Practical implicationsThis instrument is one of the few that focuses on measuring bribery in the business sector in terms of corrupt practices, applicable for both public and private institutions to promote game rules against bribery. Additionally, the proposed theoretical model can be used to measure other phenomena with similar characteristics.Originality/valueThis article empirically highlights different variables that make bribery possible. The results can be helpful in the design of strategies to prevent this type of behavior. It also highlights the importance of designing mechanisms to record information related to bribery and the different expressions of corruption in order to explain its different nuances.

“…El crecimiento económico de los países miembros de América Latina (LATAM) se da por la inversión, pero lamentablemente la corrupción genera un efecto negativo en su comportamiento, por lo que se debe disminuir los niveles de este mal (Fernand y Pastás, 2022). La corrupción es vista como uno de los fenómenos sociales más estudiados a nivel global, considerada como una práctica presente en el continente, cuyos elementos clave para su consolidación son el ámbito público, el desarrollo organizacional, prácticas administrativas, así como los actores políticos de gran poder (Mazuera-Arias et al, 2019;Palacios et al, 2022;Moreno-López, Porporato y Maharaj, 2022).…”

The growth and economic development of a nation is directly proportional to its road infrastructure and corruption is institutionalized in Latin American countries. Therefore, we sought to compare the costs of investment in road works allocated in Peru with those allocated in the European Union. In methodology, a basic research was contemplated, with a qualitative approach and an epistemological posture that corresponds to the hermeneutic paradigm. The results showed that the investment costs required for a road project on the coast of Peru is 13% more than what was allocated in the projects audited by the European Court of Auditors; similarly, the road projects to be located in the highlands and jungle of Peru would require 83% and 61% more cost, respectively. It was concluded that the differences would be due to orographic and geological issues, due to the capricious and inhospitable nature of the Peruvian geography and that it is essential to evaluate executed projects, corroborating whether they meet their objectives, both social and operational, measuring the effects they generated in the economy, as well as in the satisfaction of the users of the intervened roads.
