Abstract

The scientific work has as its theme The Willful Blindness and its Applicability to Financial Crimes, constituting an attempt to approach the willful blindness from its origin in the form of historical jurisdictional precedent, to the intricacies of its development and application in the world and local scenarios. In order to establish the vectors for the application of the theory, it was sought, after a brief conceptualization of money laundering, to analyze the requirements for its adoption in some economic crimes, as a way to improve the criminal repression of such illicit acts. The theoretical-methodological approach of the present research is based on a qualitative approach, which uses bibliographic research as strategy. It took care to carry out detailed and comprehensive bibliographic and jurisprudential research aiming to build solid argumentation and due consideration of willful blindness, under the bias of its harmonization with the crimes provided in Law nº 9.613/98.
