Desarrollo conceptual del principio de paridad de género conforme la jurisprudencia de la Corte Constitucional del Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract: This paper, entitled: Conceptual Development of the Principle of Gender Parity According to the Jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, analyzes the role that the Constitutional Court has played in the legal and political construction of the principle of parity, guiding its implementation through an evolving jurisprudential doctrine, aiming to fill the gaps in the national legal bibliography, where the issue of gender is frequently addressed from a normative approach, but without a systematic study of jurisprudence. Judgment 1041-19- JP/25 of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador establishes important precedents regarding gender parity and women's rights to political participation in decentralized autonomous governments. Qualitative Documentary Method: A qualitative methodology based on the study of legal documents and documents is used, which facilitates the detailed analysis of the conceptual evolution of the principle of gender equality in judicial resolutions. The Ecuadorian Constitutional Court, through its jurisprudence, has achieved significant success by redefining gender parity as a required right and an essential requirement for democratic legitimacy.
