TITULO: “LA PROMESA DE COMPRAVENTA EN PROYECTOS INMOBILIARIOS COMO CONTRATO DE ADHESIÓN
(2026) BOHORQUEZ BAIDAL JEANETH PAULINA
The purchase agreement used in real estate projects has become a common
instrument in the Ecuadorian real estate sector, especially when marketing
properties that are still in the planning and construction phases.
However, in practice, this instrument is usually used under certain conditions
previously drafted and approved by the developers or construction companies in
charge of the real estate project, thus limiting the negotiating power of future
buyers. Because of this, the purchase agreement takes on characteristics of an
adhesion contract, in which one party imposes the conditions entirely on the other.
This research paper analyzes the legal nature of the purchase agreement within real
estate projects, evaluating its contractual structure to verify whether it effectively
meets the conditions of an adhesion contract. It also examines the legal implications
this may have for the end consumer, such as contractual balance and legal certainty.
Finally, it analyzes the need to strengthen regulatory and control mechanisms that
guarantee the protection of buyers and the balance in the negotiation within the real
estate market.
LA EFICACIA DE LOS DERECHOS DE LA NATURALEZA EN EL ECUADOR: ANÁLISIS DEL CASO “MONA ESTRELLITA”
(2026-03) CHRISTIAN CAMILO SANTELLI PUENTE; BRICCIDA ROBLES
In 2022, the Constitutional Court of Ecuador resolved the landmark case “Mona Estrellita,” which originated from a habeas corpus petition filed to recover a primate that had lived for 18 years in domestic captivity. The Court examined whether wild animals can be considered subjects of rights under the constitutional framework of the Rights of Nature, distinguishing their legal status from that of human beings. The legal controversy intensified because the monkey died in a zoo shortly after being confiscated by environmental authorities, sparking debates about responsible ownership and custody protocols. Through this ruling, the Court sought to establish binding jurisprudence and general guidelines for the protection of animals as sentient beings with specific protections. The document also compiles various opinions from national and international amici curiae, discussing the evolution of animal law and the effectiveness of judicial guarantees in these contexts.
EL BLANQUEO DE CAPITALES DESDE LA PERSPECTIVA DEL DERECHO COMPARADO: ECUADOR Y ESPAÑA.
(2026-05) LUCAS CASTRO GINA SARAY
This paper studies and compares how two countries with common legal roots but very different realities regulate money laundering: Spain and Ecuador. While Spain has a highly developed regulatory system, driven largely by its membership of the European Union, Ecuador has been building its own more gradually, facing difficulties specific to its socioeconomic context. The main objective is to determine what both systems have in common and where they differ, using the international standards of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as a reference point. A legal-comparative methodology has been followed, supported by current legislation, specialized doctrine and institutional sources. The main conclusions suggest that, although both countries share a common international normative basis, the Spanish legal system shows a clearly superior level of technical and institutional development, while Ecuador faces serious challenges related to drug trafficking, the informal economy and the lack of resources of its financial intelligence unit.
INEFICACIA EN EL CUMPLIMIENTO DE LAS PENSIONES ALI-MENTICIAS Y SU IMPACTO EN LOS DERECHOS DE LA NIÑEZ
(2026-05) CALDERON GARCIA DAVIS JESUS
The failure to pay child support in Ecuador is not only due to a failure in the exe-cution of judicial decisions, but also reflects a daily reality in which many chil-dren and adolescents do not receive the necessary resources for their subsistence in a timely manner, despite a previously established legal obligation. In this con-text, this paper aims to examine whether the mechanisms provided for in the legal system are truly effective in ensuring the timely payment of these obligations. The study is developed from a qualitative, dogmatic, and descriptive approach, through the normative analysis of the Constitution of Ecuador (CRE), the Com-prehensive Organic Criminal Code (COIP), and the Code for Children and Ado-lescents (CONA), as well as a comparison with international and comparative standards. The results show that, despite the existence of enforcement and coer-cive measures, their application has limitations that reduce their effectiveness, al-lowing non-compliance to continue and weakening the effective judicial protec-tion of children and adolescents.
ACCESO A LA JUSTICIA DE PERSONAS SORDAS Y DESIGNACIÓN DE INTÉRPRETES EN ECUADOR
(2026-05) LOPEZ SALAZAR DANIEL SALOMON
This paper analyzes the problem related to the late or nonexistent appointment of sign language interpreters within the Ecuadorian judicial system and its impact on the right of access to justice and due process for deaf individuals.
The research is based on the analysis of the applicable constitutional, legal, and international framework, especially the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador, the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and Ecuadorian regulations regarding disability and accessibility.
The methodology used is legal-dogmatic in nature, based on normative, doctrinal, and jurisprudential analysis. In addition, Ecuadorian judicial precedents are examined to demonstrate how the absence of interpreters violates the right to defense and limits effective participation in judicial proceedings.
Finally, the paper concludes that the insufficient implementation of institutional mechanisms to guarantee communicational accessibility constitutes a form of indirect discrimination and a violation of the principle of substantive equality.
