Abstract

The article analyzes political crime during the first decades of the newly established Republic of Ecuador. The study mainly focuses on the figure of Juan José Flores, the first President of Ecuador. The political uncertainty, the instability of alliances  among  regional  elites,  the  economic  crisis  generated  by  the  wars  of independence,  the  conspiracies  and  violence  that  characterized  the  emergence period of the Andean republics made political crime a “vice of birth”. The assas sination of major general Antonio José de Sucre, the killing of the Sociedad “El Quiteño Libre”, the homicide of Juan Otamendi, among others, made patent this feature.
