description The purpose of this article is to analyze the causes of a possible crisis of the principle of legality, from a theoretical perspective. Certain factors related to the denial of the law as protector of freedom and limiter of political power would be in the origin of this crisis. Constituent processes, the establishment of a social State in a formal sense and the delegation of enabling laws caused the law to lose its place in a State governed by the rule of law. This study presents a brief but meticulous documentary compilation of literature that deals with this problem, special emphasis has had the contributions of Laporta, Hayek and Nieto. The latter has often denied the existence of the principle of legality. It is concluded that power will always seek to disregard legality and, therefore, individual freedoms are not duly protected. Finally, the article seeks to feed this discussion further and enhance its relevance to build solid democratic pillars.

Ciertos factores relacionados con la negación de la ley como protectora de la libertad y limitadora del poder político, estarían en el origen de esta crisis. Procesos constituyentes, instauraciones de un Estado social en sentido formal y delegaciones de leyes habilitantes han hecho que la ley ceda posiciones en un Estado de derecho. Este estudio realiza una breve pero minuciosa recopilación de literatura que ha abordado dicha problemática, con especial énfasis en los aportes de Laporta, Hayek y Nieto. Este último, a menudo ha negado la existencia del principio de legalidad. Se concluye que el poder siempre procurará desconocer la legalidad y, por lo tanto, las libertades individuales no tendrán la protección debida. Por último, el artículo procura que esta discusión se mantenga vigente y no pierda la relevancia para construir sólidos pilares democráticos.Instituto de Altos Estudios Nacionales IAEN2022-01-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículos evaluados por doble pares ciegosapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+ziphttps://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/24310.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n14.2022.243Estado & comunes; Vol. 1 No. 14 (2022): Transformation of the State and challenges for the Administrative FunctionEstado & comunes; Vol. 1 Núm. 14 (2022): Transformación del Estado y retos para la función administrativa2477-92451390-8081reponame:Revista de políticas y problemas públicosinstname:Instituto de Altos Estudios Nacionalesinstacron:IAENspahttps://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/243/440https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/243/441https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/243/442Derechos de autor 2022 Jonás Eduardo Aponte Arcilainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-04-22T15:34:24Zoai:revistas.iaen.edu.ec:article/243Portal de revistashttps://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunesUniversidad públicahttps://www.iaen.edu.ec/https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/oaiEcuadoropendoar:2025-04-22T15:34:24falsePortal de revistashttps://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunesUniversidad públicahttps://www.iaen.edu.ec/https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/oai.Ecuadoropendoar:2025-04-22T15:34:24Revista de políticas y problemas públicos - Instituto de Altos Estudios Nacionalesfalse
