Paro Nacional: political agendas that did not answer for national interests among the social crisis inside Ecuador

Abstract

In Ecuador, words like development, national agenda or integration are losing their material sense because of the behavior that came from politicians and social leaders. All of those actors are having public speeches that promote separation and assert that other actors are guilty for the events. The “Paro Nacional” was the clearest expression of social fragmentation inside the country, letting us to know how is going to be the participation during the next presidential elections in 2021, a situation where the interests of the political parties will be bigger than the possibility of having national agreements between all the political actors inside Ecuador. Unfortunately, these speeches shape the political opinion, getting this into negative social behavior that damage different parts of the society and political authorities legitimate that.
