| description | By assuming a legal point of view, this article argues that the US-Andean Free Trade Agreement should not be approved by a popular referendum. According to legal doctrines and concepts, the free trade agreement is an international treaty; therefore, the people are not entitled to decide whether or not it should be approved. It is also posited that a popular referendum could become very problematic due to factors related to the educational levels of the Ecuadorian population and the political uses of the consultation. |

Un análisis conceptual apoya el argumento central del autor, quien sostiene que el TLC por ser un tratado internacional no debe ser objeto de aprobación o desaprobación por parte del pueblo, ya que éste carece de la facultad necesaria para tal fin. Finalmente Ortiz señala que más allá de lo jurídico, las condiciones de educación de la población ecuatoriana y el manejo político que se le puede dar a la consulta, son aspectos que problematizan el desarrollo de una consulta popular.Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar, Sede Ecuador2016-05-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.uasb.edu.ec/index.php/comentario/article/view/159Comentario Internacional: Journal of the Andean Center of International Studies; No. 6 (2006): Luces y sombras de la negociación del TLC; 213-216Comentario Internacional: Revista del Centro Andino de Estudios Internacionales; Núm. 6 (2006): Luces y sombras de la negociación del TLC; 213-2162631-25491390-1532reponame:Revista Comentario Internacionalinstname:Universidad Andina Simón Bolivarinstacron:UASBspahttps://revistas.uasb.edu.ec/index.php/comentario/article/view/159/167Derechos de autor 2016 Comentario Internacional.
