Estudio comparado y sociojurídico de la unión de hecho desde el caso ecuatoriano con los países de América Latina y/o la Unión Europea /

Abstract

The present investigation presents the development of a comparative law study regarding the de facto union regime between Ecuadorian and Slovak legislation. This study aims to contrast the differences in the legal systems of family law, which allows us to understand the procedures by which their institutions are established and their conflicts are solved, the union being in fact one of the most common aspects in the estates of such a right. In making the comparison, different foundations or perspectives will be available to solve the legal problems within that institution. The contribution of this research is the recognition of the most liberal criteria as to the element of the will to contract obligations in relationships, which applies in Slovak law, as well as a greater availability on the assets of the facto society. These legal guidelines will serve for possible reforms in Ecuadorian law that will benefit the facto union with less restrictions on the personal will to contract it and the administration of goods.
