| description | This article explores the legal consequences of the application of the ‘failed state’ concept, from the perspective of international law and Ecuadorian jurisprudence. It seeks to determine whether the social protests, the increase in criminal violence, citizen insecurity and the violation of human rights that occurred in Ecuador between 2019 and 2022 are a symptom of this fracture, that is, of a failed state. The resolutions of the United Nations system, the regional system for the protection of human rights and rulings of the Constitutional Court (CC) are referred to. The CC documents would expose whether the CC adopted exceptional security measures in a disproportionate manner or whether it promoted a solid institutionality for the protection of human rights. The authors suggest that different elements point to a crisis on several fronts, yet it does not amount to a failed state. Finally, they recommend the responsible and critical use of this concept, as greater analytical capacity in future research depends on it. |

Este artículo explora las consecuencias jurídicas de la aplicación del concepto de Estado fallido, desde el derecho internacional y la jurisprudencia ecuatoriana. Se busca conocer si las protestas sociales, el aumento de la violencia criminal, la inseguridad ciudadana y la vulneración de los derechos humanos ocurridos en Ecuador entre 2019 y 2022 son un síntoma de esta fractura, es decir, de un Estado fallido. Se acude a las resoluciones del sistema de Naciones Unidas, del sistema regional de protección de los derechos humanos y sentencias de la Corte Constitucional (CC). Los documentos de la CC expondrían si dicho órgano de control adoptó medidas excepcionales de seguridad de manera desproporcionada o si promovió una institucionalidad sólida al amparo de los derechos humanos. Los autores sugieren que distintos elementos apuntan a una crisis en varios frentes, no obstante, no existe un Estado fallido en Ecuador. Por último, recomiendan el uso responsable y crítico de este concepto, ya que de ello depende una mayor capacidad de análisis en futuras investigaciones.
