Analysis of the "National Development Plan 2017-2021 for a lifetime" and its implications for the economic development of Ecuador

Abstract

Ecuador has gone through a series of stages in the construction of a Nation State with a better capacity to sustain a higher level of quality of life for its inhabitants. In the global context, the planning and management of a country's resources must be guided by the development policies that economic science provides in the theories put forward, some of which Ecuador has addressed with a series of social repercussions. The National Program of Good Living whose role is to create an economic, political and social planning at the service of the human being expands its more humanistic reason in its theoretical structures and takes the name of "National Development Plan 2017-2021 All a Life". The main arguments set out in the plan, the policies it addresses, the goals to be achieved and statistical data in its first two years of implementation will be presented to determine the trend of compliance with its objectives.
