Contribution of the Legislative Branch to the Right to Education in Ecuador, 1992-2021

The objective of this article is to identify the contribution that the Legislature has made, as an instance of generating laws, in what corresponds to the right to education. To evaluate this process, the dimensions of affordability, access, adaptability and acceptability are considered, which allow us to recognize all the elements that make up this right. The development of this article identifies the process of consolidation of education in the country, recognizing that unstrengthened processes persist that prevent this right from achieving a comprehensive evolution: there is a political element that conditions said evolution and can be seen through legislative work or the legal reforms that are proposed. Multipartyism, the formation of majorities, the proposing actors and political ideologies are some of the variables that affect the legislative agenda on the educational issue. One of the most notable readings of this work is related to the cost-benefit logic with which political actors understand educational policies, as well as the presence of majority benches, elements that increase the possibility that these laws will be approved. The impact on the right to education shows the progress that has been achieved at the national level on the issue of affordability, but there are still many pending issues regarding quality, equality, inclusion and plurality as key elements of the other dimensions.
