MARTINEZ-MOSCOSO, Andrés; CABRERA, Francisco Bermeo  and  SALAZAR, Ana Cecilia. The right to the city in Ecuador and its exercise. Normative and practical analysis on its application and restrictions at the local government. Iuris Dictio [online]. 2019, n.23, pp.71-84. ISSN 2528-7834.  https://doi.org/10.18272/iu.v23i23.1433.

The objective of this article is to analyze the legal implications that the right to the city has and how its constitutionalization in Ecuador has allowed or not that citizens can appropriate public spaces. In addition, it questions if the secondary legislation in Ecuador has developed this innovative concept, or if on the contrary the Municipal Administration and politicians continue to prefer a concept persecutor of security versus the appropriation of public spaces by citizens.

In it, there are used tools for lifting of quantitative and qualitative information, which is analyzed under the use of indicators of inclusiveness, security, significant activities, organicity and actors, and institutions that allowed to conclude that the constitutionalization of the right to the city is a principle to, which makes lack giving content, since both at the normative level as a politician, there is no clarity on the part of political actors, or social, because the criminal role at the end could restrict the use of the public space and affects the rights to the city exercise.
