GARCIA, Belkys Alida. The administration of indigenous justice in Ecuador, an approach from their cosmovision. RCUISRAEL [online]. 2020, vol.7, n.2, pp.57-74. ISSN 2631-2786.  https://doi.org/10.35290/rcui.v7n2.2020.266.

This article aimed at a critical analysis about the administration of indigenous justice in Ecuador, from the worldview. In other words, interpret how indigenous justice derives from customs, myths and legends from a whole learning of their ancestors. On the other hand, contrast how and what are the main problems that arise between indigenous justice and ordinary. Their penalties and / or punishments, cosmogonic ally, the justice element cannot be anything other than the reflection of all these uses and customs. Thanks to the teachings of older adults, their parents and grandparents, a paradigm of respect for values, ethical principles and harmony was formed. Natural law is that set of objective norms that govern nature, independent of man's will; such as the law of the day, the law of rain, the law of wind, the cycle of life: to be born, grow, reproduce and return, thus giving a relationship of man and nature while preserving the natural balance. An example of the problem of the application of justice by Ecuadorian indigenous peoples is that of non bis in idem, which in Spanish means “not twice for the same ', and that the form ne bis in idem is also used.

Keywords : worldview; indigenous justice; ordinary justice; non bis in idem; ne bis in idem.
