Ecuador South America GOVERNMENT The 2008 constitution provides for 4-year terms of office for the president, vice president, and members of the National Assembly. Presidents may be consecutively re-elected for an additional term. The executive branch currently includes 28 ministries, (including coordinating ministries with inter-governmental responsibility). Provincial leaders (called prefects) and councilors, like mayors, city councilors, and rural parish boards, are directly elected. A newly elected National Assembly will replace the interim Legislative Commission after the April 2009 elections. Justices of the National Court of Justice will be selected by a Judicial Council through a merit-based process to a nine-year term with no immediate reappointment. A special committee, composed of members selected by all branches of government, will appoint the members of the Constitutional Court to serve a nine-year term, with no reappointment. POLITICAL CONDITIONS Ecuador's political parties have historically been small, loose organizations that depend more on populist, often charismatic, leaders to retain support than on programs or ideology. Frequent internal splits have produced great factionalism. No party has won the presidency for two consecutive terms since the return to civilian government in 1979. Beginning with the 1996 election, the indigenous population abandoned its traditional policy of shunning the official political system and participated actively. The indigenous population established itself as a force in Ecuadorian politics, and participated in the Gutierrez administration before joining the opposition.

The government is in talks to acquire the natural gas- powered Machala plant on the nation's Pacific coast, said Galo Borja, minister of strategic industries coordination. He declined to discuss financial terms of a possible transaction. President Rafael Correa is tightening state control over the nation's oil, natural gas and electricity production since taking office in 2007. Last month, the government said it began the process to cancel the natural-gas exploration and production contract belonging to Noble Energy's EDC Ecuador Ltd. unit. Gas from Noble's field supplies Machala. The plant, which began production in 2002, is one of the nation's lowest-cost producers, according to Houston-based Noble's Web site. The government may more than triple Machala's generating capacity, Borja said.

Government and Politics Ecuador Table of Contents ONE OF THE LEAST POLITICALLY stable of the South American republics for most of its history, Ecuador had 86 governments and 17 constitutions in its first 159 years of independence. Only twenty of those governments resulted from popular elections, and many of the elections were fraudulent. José María Velasco Ibarra, who completed only one of his five terms as president, often stated, "Ecuador is a very difficult country to govern." Ecuador had four successive democratic elections from 1948 to 1960, but the country did not experience relative political stability under democratic rule again until the 1980s. Seven years of military dictatorship ended with the presidential inauguration of Jaime Roldós Aguilera on August 10, 1979. After Roldós died in an airplane crash on May 24, 1981, Vice President Osvaldo Hurtado Larrea assumed the presidency. The completion of the Hurtado/Roldós administration and the constitutional and orderly transfer of powerthe first such transfer in twenty-four yearsto conservative León Febres Cordero Ribadeneyra (1984-88) in August 1984 seemed to affirm the restoration of democracy in Ecuador. Nevertheless, as Roldós himself had cautioned shortly before taking office, the nation had only a formalistic and ritualistic democratic tradition. Indeed, Ecuador has been shaken periodically since 1984 by bitter conflicts between the executive branch on the one side and the unicameral legislature and the judiciary on the other. These clashes were particularly pronounced during Febres Cordero's polemical administration. His authoritarian rule also provoked military mutinies and even his brief abduction by rebellious troops. Although battered, Ecuador's democratic system survived, and Febres Cordero transferred power to his long-time rival, Rodrigo Borja Cevallos, in August 1988. Whereas Febres Cordero, a millionaire businessman from Guayaquil, had advocated a free-market economy, strong executive control, and close alignment with the United States, Borja, a social democrat from

Article from: NotiSur - South American Political and Economic Affairs Article date: October 29, 2004 Customer Support Related articles The Ecuadoran government has called on the international community and the Colombian government to help support the increasing number of Colombian refugees entering Ecuador to flee the violence in their homeland. In a joint meeting, President Lucio Gutiuerrez of Ecuador and President Alvaro Uribe of Colombia signed a pact to regularize the status of hundreds of thousands of Colombian immigrants to Ecuador, conduct a census of them, and share responsibility for their well-being. Ecuador desperate for greater resources for Colombian refugees Currently, an estimated 300,000 refugees live in Ecuador, with that number going up sharply with increased conflict in regions where the Colombian government is fighting guerrilla and paramilitary groups. Backed by US financial and political support, President Uribe has aggressively expanded the war on guerrilla groups and paramilitaries in Colombia (see NotiSur, 2004-08-13, 2004-04-02), with the resultant conflict driving more and more Colombian citizens from their homes. Approximately two million Colombians have been displaced, with hundreds of thousands fleeing across the Ecuadoran border, many of them illegally.
