Summary:
In this chapter we explore the complex political dynamics that have perpetuated Ecuador's socioeconomic crisis, the fragility of the country's public institutions, and the uncertainty in taking on a new security agenda in the region. The political management of the neoliberal reform agenda implemented during the 1990s is the main context in which these processes have emerged.
