in Spring 2017, Ecuador celebrated presidential elections where, for the first time since 2006, Rafael Correa couldn’t be candidate, due to the second transitional disposition included in the constitutional reform of 2015. The most important legacy of this decade, according to the author, is the 2008 Constitution, that has included the concept of sumak kawsay/buen vivir as one of the main objective of the State public policy. Although its intrinsic novelty, the expression can be interpreted at least in two different manners, each implying opposed views about how to develop the State economic model and to implement sustainable measures for the protection of Nature and biodiversity. Analysing the economic policies during the Correa presidential mandate, the author reflects on the compatibility of extractivism with the constitutional compromise of building the State of buen vivir.

Abstract
in Spring 2017, Ecuador celebrated presidential elections where, for the first time since 2006, Rafael Correa couldn’t be candidate, due to the second transitional disposition included in the constitutional reform of 2015. The most important legacy of this decade, according to the author, is the 2008 Constitution, that has included the concept of sumak kawsay/buen vivir as one of the main objective of the State public policy. Although its intrinsic novelty, the expression can be interpreted at least in two different manners, each implying opposed views about how to develop the State economic model and to implement sustainable measures for the protection of Nature and biodiversity. Analysing the economic policies during the Correa presidential mandate, the author reflects on the compatibility of extractivism with the constitutional compromise of building the State of buen vivir.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
