Summary: This paper addresses the necessity to include public and administrative morality in the legal regulation of the activity of public servants in order to establish legitimate social expectations and prevent acts of corruption. This research is qualitative in nature and its scope is exploratory: a documentary analysis is carried out that privileges official data while making use of the static analysis of the case law of the higher courts. To achieve our purpose, a presentation is made of the scope of corruption in Colombia; then, the concepts of public and administrative morality are analyzed as a legitimate normative expectation and, finally, it is shown that, due to the sanctioning and punitive approach of the anti- corruption regulations, the contribution of public and administrative morality in the prevention of corruption has been ignored.
