description Corruption is a way of acting, an instrument, a too l that allows achieving certain goals otherwise unattainable or more expensive, and democracy has not been a system capable of eliminating its existence. Despite its universality, the different types of corruption have dissimilar etiology and development. This creates some problems for better characterization and understanding of corruption and, of course, for its more effective eradication. Therefore this article presents a definition of corruption clearing the way to avoid bad understood purely verbal. Universality of corruption does not imply that always the same goods or identical rights are affected. In this sense, it is possible to think that sometimes affects human rights, although it does not happen in all cases. There is not a direct or causal relationship between corruption and violation of human rights. The second part of this work is intended for the analysis of the most burdensome consequences that some corrupt practices have for human rights. And, ultimately, there is an analysis of the standard me asures that have been identified to address this human calamity.

La corrupción es un modo de actuar, un instrumento, una herramienta que permite alcanzar determinados objetivos de otra manera inalcanzables o más costosos, y la democracia no ha sido un sistema capaz de eliminar su existencia. A pesar de su universalidad, los distintos tipos de corrupción tienen unaetiología y un desarrollo disímiles. Esto genera algunos problemas para la mejor caracterización y comprensión de los actos de corrupción y, desde luego, para su más eficaz erradicación. Por ello en este artículo se presenta una definición de corrupción que desbroce el camino para evitar malosentendidos puramente verbales. La universalidad de la corrupción no supone que siempre se vean afectados los mismos bienes o idénticos derechos. En este sentido es posible pensar queen ocasiones también interesa a los derechos humanos, aunque no ocurra en todos los casos. No existe una relación directa o causal entre corrupción y  violación de derechos humanos. La segunda parte de este trabajo se destina al análisis de las consecuencias más gravosas que tienen algunas prácticas corruptas para los derechos humanos. Y, en último término, se presta atención a las medidas estándares que han sido señaladas para hacer frente a esta calamidad humana.
