El proyecto político del presidente Rafael Correa. Análisis del ámbito social durante el periodo 2007 – 2017

Abstract

The decade of the citizen revolution marked a trend of progressive socioeconomic development, focusing on public investment in excluded social sectors, in addition to a new constitution that gave greater recognition to human rights in the country. However, various criticisms were generated during this period in a context of alleged overspending of state resources, cases of over-indebtedness, increased foreign debt and processes that lacked transparency and reliability. Based on these criteria, the research carried out focuses on analyzing Rafael Correa's political project during his 10 years in office, through a retrospective study that provides the pertinent guidelines to characterize and interpret the events generated in the socioeconomic environment. Based on these criteria, the research carried out focuses on analyzing Rafael Correa's political project during his 10 years in office, through a retrospective study that provides the pertinent guidelines to characterize and interpret the events generated in the socioeconomic environment.

The most outstanding aspect of the research process was the 2008 Constitution of Ecuador, which established changes in the systems of governance, evidently of a progressive nature due to the fact that the projects generated were implemented in terms of social welfare.
