La legitimación, aplicación y ejecución de la pena en el sistema penal ecuatoriano

Abstract

The state legislature every day elaborates a law system which is adapted to the constant changes of society, which by its dynamism evolves by leaps and bounds. One of the main topics to be discussed, it is the criminalization of some conducts and the sanctions for those behaviors that are not tolerated by the social nucleus. The state speech is the maximum application of punitive power. It every day takes strength and is legitimized accepted and even requested by the people who consider that they live in a constant state of insecurity and danger. However, we should consider that the application of severe penalties, involve the control and domination of power of the state and therefore the government. Consequently by giving these prerogatives to the state, the power overflows and it generate deviations which could cause a damage to the alleged infringer and citizens.
