Responsabilità da reato dell’impresa societaria ex d.lgs. n. 231/2001 e sostenibilità socio-economica

The paper aims to provide an assessment of the Legislative Decree no. 231/2001, which has proved particularly attractive at international level for its pioneering elements, including the foundation of corporate criminal liability on organisational fault, progressively recognised also in case law. The strengths and main application problems are highlighted, also from a socio-economic sustainability perspective, together with the prospects for reform of this piece of legislation whose dual aim must be safeguarded: ex ante prevention and ex post reparation.
