Vol. 2 No. 18 (2025): Crisis Carcelaria en Ecuador. Desafíos jurídicos y sociales para la reinserción carcelaria en Ecuador
La crisis penitenciaria en Ecuador ha puesto en evidencia profundas falencias en el sistema de justicia y en las políticas de rehabilitación social, convirtiéndose en un fenómeno que trasciende lo jurídico y compromete la estabilidad política, la seguridad ciudadana y la cohesión social. Los episodios de violencia en los centros de privación de libertad, las limitaciones institucionales y la ausencia de políticas sostenidas de reinserción plantean urgentes interrogantes sobre el rol del derecho, el Estado y la sociedad frente a la privación de libertad.
Esta edición busca fomentar un análisis crítico e interdisciplinario que examine los orígenes, dinámicas y consecuencias de la crisis carcelaria en el país, así como las alternativas y buenas prácticas para enfrentarla desde una perspectiva jurídica, social y política.
