Resumen

Contexto: este artículo explora las "vacunas extorsivas", una modalidad de extorsión donde se cobra a negocios locales por "protección" en Ecuador, destacando cómo estas prácticas impactan adversamente tanto a la economía como al tejido social del país. Este fenómeno refleja una tendencia más amplia de crimen organizado en América Latina, que genera un ambiente de inseguridad y coerción. Objetivo: analizar las dimensiones jurídicas y las tendencias de las 'vacunas extorsivas' en Ecuador, situándolas en el contexto de las prácticas de extorsión en América Latina. Metodología: se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura, seleccionando 51 artículos pertinentes de bases de datos como Science Direct, Scielo, Redalyc, y Google Académico. Los criterios de inclusión se centraron en estudios que discuten la extorsión desde perspectivas jurídicas y sociales. Desarrollo: el estudio destaca cómo la legislación ecuatoriana enfrenta este desafío y compara las respuestas legales en diferentes contextos latinoamericanos. Conclusión: la principal conclusión revela la necesidad crítica de fortalecer las estrategias legales y mejorar la cooperación entre las naciones de América Latina para combatir eficazmente la extorsión y sus efectos perjudiciales.
