La protección del derecho a la propiedad en las sentencias de la Corte Constitucional del Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract: This research work studies the interpretation made by the Ecuadorian Constitutional Court on the constitutional norms related to the exercise of the right to property, through the study of cases that have come to its attention through mechanisms such as the extraordinary action for protection and action for unconstitutionality. The research concludes that the Constitutional Court makes a distinction between the right to property as a fundamental right and the right to property as a property right. In the first case, respect and guarantee can be demanded through jurisdictional guarantees. In addition, the Court recognizes the forms of protection of the right to property, including communal property of indigenous peoples.
