Abstract

Human beings can reflect their kindness and miseries in their lives, some of those miseries acquired by nature or by social learning, in any case destructive, can act as a common thread to crime. As a defense against crime, penalties were created and within them, prison, which aims to encourage the citizen to assume a series of basic values ​​for social coexistence in a regime of democracy and justice where subjective rights are respected and humans. This means that the sentence must be based on key policies for the rehabilitation of the individual and their normal reintegration into society, which requires a State that is concerned not only with setting policies, but also applying, monitoring and evaluating them in order to leave them, change or delete them. The purpose of this research is to analyze if the reintegration of the prisoner in Ecuador is effective, which is justified by the constitutional requirements of the Ecuadorian State. To fulfill the objective of the study, a quantitative and qualitative (mixed) methodology is applied, in which doctrinal and legal studies are combined with the application of a survey to the inmates of the Cotopaxi prison.
