Se ha escuchado en varias ocasiones que la costumbre debería ser una causa
de exclusión de la antijuridicidad de una conducta típica, conside- rando que la ley debe comprender los sentimientos sociales y dotarlos de regulaciones para el buen con- vivir social.
Sin embargo, esta misma cos- tumbre que debe ser regulada y reconocida por la ley, tiene que encontrarse ceñida a las buenas prácticas que conducen a la co- rrecta administración pública, en beneficio de toda la colectividad, y donde las normas legales deben ser cuidadosamente cumplidas y respetadas, puesto que de no ha- cerlo se genera inseguridad jurídi- ca, y un Estado ineficiente por la corrupción que degenera las es- tructuras democráticas, causando un perjuicio colectivo que atenta contra toda la confianza en el es- tado de derecho.
Palabras claves: Corrupción, administración pública, funciona-

Abstract:
In several times, we have heard that cultural behavior must have to break the illegal understanding of some crimi- nal conducts, to become it per- mitted, us people practice it as a normal behavior, that have to be recognized by law to avoid any sanction.
The inconvenient come when this kind o cultural practice, involves public servants and with them the normal function of the public administration. It became a problem to Estate or- ganization and to society, when public servants receives from in- dividual any benefit that its not allow on his public job, but ei- ther of them offers and receives the bonus for the job done or to be done, because they unders- tand that the public servant is doing a favor instead of accom- plished his work.
In any democracy, this behavior is known us co- rruption, and the result of this illegal practices, is inse- curity of citizens before the public administration and its servants, so people doesn’t trust the government and whom they conform the administration.
Key words: Corruption, public administration, pu- blic servant, culture, criminal conduct, Constitution, observance of legal duty, democracy.
