ARRIAS ANEZ, Julio César De Jesús; PLAZA BENAVIDES, Betzabeth Raquel y PAUCAR PAUCAR, César Elías. Socio-legal analysis on the typification and sanction of the crime of drug trafficking in Ecuadorian legislation. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2020, vol.12, n.4, pp. 371-376. Epub 02-Ago-2020.

The general purpose of the article was to conduct a socio-legal analysis on the classification and punishment of the crime of drug trafficking in Ecuadorian legislation to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of current anti-drug regulations. The research is analytical, addresses the interpretative paradigm with a qualitative approach, the method used is the legal hermeneutic, the design applied is documentary-bibliographic, the sources of information collection are mixed, the results obtained were achieved through the triangulation of information obtained from legal texts and in-depth interviews conducted with key informants. It was concluded that the prevailing legal norms in the current legal system are out of context with respect to the international legal framework related to narcotic and psychotropic substances, since there are three normative instruments that are not in synchrony, there are various types of criminal law enshrined in the international anti-narcotics treaties to which Ecuador is a signatory that are not defined by the COIP, and there is no governing body responsible for formulating public strategies to combat this public health scourge, which attacks Ecuador's sovereignty.
