The Nature, as a subject holder of rights, was set for the first time in human history in the 2008's Ecuadorian Constitution. Establishing by science as a legal concept of undeniable topicality, it imposed multiple challenges on society and its legal system, as well as many challenges to the State and justice institutions. Rebuild the legal culture, the legal and jurisprudential system of the Ecuadorian state from an humanocentric foundation towards a biocentric one, undoubtedly constitutes the main legal scientific challenge of State powers. Thus, analyzing the main theoretical and jurisdictional concepts on the behold for the rights of Nature in the Ecuadorian Case, constitutes the main objective of this doctoral thesis. Upon this, our research combines qualitative-interpretive paradigms with those of a descriptive-explanatory approach, a methodological strategy that allowed us to elucidate the main questions in history and present day about the recognition of Nature as a subject of rights. Our approach is completed with a casuistic methodology, allowing us to analyze real cases, as well as pertinent jurisprudence that enables us to ensure that, in Ecuador Case. even when there is a protectionist legal system in relation to the rights of Nature, already in judicial practice, the performance of the judges is not enough to ensure them, causing serious difficulties for their effective judicial protection. However, our research conclusions are tending to demonstrate that, despite the difficulties in the performance of legal system, there is evidence of an increasingly growing political efforts in the Ecuadorian sphere to ensure and improve, more comprehensively, all the actions that the legislative, executive and judicial, to operate in favor of the rights of Nature.
