Principios constitucionales que regulan el uso progresivo de la fuerza por miembros de la Policía Nacional.

Abstract

Titling work that demonstrates the importance of incorporating principles that allow in the legal norm of Ecuador, to regulate the use of force by members of the National Police, therefore it is based on a doctrinal level study of conceptual definitions and juridical ones with broad powers that have been entrusted to the National Police, which may have transcendental effects with respect to the lives of citizens; for the reason that if used improperly, it leads to serious human rights violations; and, in order to avoid it, it must be regulated within Ecuadorian jurisprudence, where the National Police is not granted absolute freedom when using the use of force as it wishes. The Constitution of the Republic does not clearly determine the circumstances in which members of the police are considered empowered when using police force. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation was to find basic principles that maintain a balance between avoiding the use of police force and being willing to use police force in a proportionate and lawful manner.
