Description
Ecuador adopted a bold new constitution in 2008, and the hosted text carries changes through 2021. The opening titles set out the parts of the state and its basic principles. Ecuador is a plurinational, single republic. Spanish is the official language, with Kichwa and Shuar official for ties among cultures. Rights fill long chapters, sorted by theme, from water and food to health and schooling.
Most famous is a chapter giving rights to nature itself, called Pachamama, which can be defended in court. A president leads the executive, and a National Assembly makes laws. Later titles cover the courts, elections, local areas, and the economy. At 444 articles, it is one of the longest charters in the world.
