Procedencia del sindicalismo por ramas de actividad en el Ecuador, en base al análisis histórico y derecho comparado

Abstract

The purpose of this research work is to establish, from a historical, legal and social conception, the need for and the appropriateness of a change in the Ecuadorian trade union approach, for which the trade union phenomenon will be analyzed from several perspectives, starting with the doctrinal, passing through the historical and reaching the merely national legal. Regarding the doctrinal analysis, the aim is to clearly visualize what should be understood by trade unionism, in addition to the different existing conceptions regarding the structure and organization of these workers' associations, for which we will analyze foreign legislation, more specifically from Uruguay, Argentina and Spain, realities that will allow us to observe firsthand the experience of these countries in relation to the trade union model adopted. Secondly, and in order to highlight the need for a change in the conception of workers' associations in our country, a review of the main historical moments of national trade unionism will be made, in order to have a full understanding of our reality. Finally, and once the Ecuadorian context is understood, as well as the forms of organization of workers' associations, we will proceed to formulate a solution to the trade union crisis in our country, which will start from a paradigm shift in terms of the conception of these associations, trying to overcome trade union atomization, through workers' associations organized around the branch of activity in question
