La desproporcionalidad en las multas de la Ley de Aguas.

Abstract

Water and its regulation in the history of the Republic of Ecuador, had severely complex problems in its institutionalization, management and distribution, these water resources are of vital importance for the existence of the man and the nature, as well as to achieve economic development in a State, reason why public international law motivates the reception of a new philosophical current called ecocentrism; in 2008 the Constitution of Ecuador recognizes water as a fundamental right and strategic national patrimony, so a new law has been created the Ley Orgánica de Recursos Hídricos, Usos y Aprovechamiento del Agua, in which the public and community management of water is possible, and is expressly prohibiting the privatization of water, the main objective of this research is to demonstrate the notorious disproportion in the fines of these new law of water, being contrary to the constitution, perceived as an unjust law for preventing the exercise of their constitutional rights to civil society.
