Resumo

One of the characteristics of Latin American neo-constitutionalism is the promotion of alternative concepts of social development based on traditional indigenous ideas of the harmonious existence of people and nature. These approaches include respect for cultural differences and biodiversity, and the creation of a truly pluralistic state based on the principles of solidarity and participation. The traditional concepts of Pacha mama (Mother Earth or nature) and buen vivir (harmonious life) are enshrined in the constitutive acts and laws of Ecuador and Bolivia, and the legal approaches derived from them apply to the entire population.
