Responsibility of the Ecuadorian state for failure to comply with public policies

Abstract

The failure to comply with public policies in Ecuador has generated a regulatory vacuum regarding the State's responsibility regarding citizens' constitutional rights. This research proposed the creation of specific theoretical and regulatory guidelines to regulate State responsibility and contribute to the protection of constitutional rights and the country's legal stability. To this end, the general objective is to argue the need to apply guidelines to regulate State responsibility in this context. The research methodology will be based on a theoretical, qualitative, and explanatory approach. Theoretical research will be used to analyze existing concepts, theories, and legal frameworks. The qualitative approach will allow for the interpretation of causes and effects of noncompliance. The explanatory scope will seek to unravel the legal causes and consequences of noncompliance through methods such as analysis-synthesis, inductive-deductive, abstract-concrete, hermeneutic, and content analysis, in order to understand the dynamics underlying the phenomenon. This study seeks to provide a comprehensive approach to improving the regulation and practice of state accountability, strengthening the protection of human rights and citizens' trust in public institutions.
