Impeachment v/s cross death in Ecuador, Guillermo Lasso.

Abstract

This academic article describes a series of actions related to the political sphere, mainly the form of government and the maintenance of social and institutional control. Hence, the topic at hand is “impeachment versus cross death.” Of course, to provide some context, it is important to establish that actions in this area are determined by the Constitution, which is facing problems between government bodies and in which society plays an important role. This means that resolving problems in which a government body participates alongside society, or each acting individually but along the same lines, leads one to consider the complexity of the phenomenon, which presents the government with a major challenge to overcome. This is the case of former President Guillermo Manuel Lasso in Ecuador, who, upon his arrival in office as a result of a second round of voting, faced a series of street protests against him. At the same time, the National Assembly was also preparing to impeach him. In this context, the events described above led former President Guillermo Lasso to decide to use his last resort: to dissolve the National Assembly.
