Corruption is a characteristic phenomenon of human societies, which happens both on developement ways countries and in developed countries. In Colombia, the political corruption phenomenon is not only created and reproduced by the country’s institutional weakness, although by socio-political and cultural conditions, such as clientelism and drug traffic. This article explores, from the economy, the phenomenon of political corruption, starting from the pioneering analysis of Public Choice and incorporating a systematic analysis to characterize the structural complexity that defines the processes of political corruption, clientelism and judicial privileges in Colombia.

Palabras clave : political corruption; clientelism; judicial favors; political markets; network structures.
