RESUMO

Abstract based on an "eco-systemic" democracy that seeks to preserve biodiversity through the recognition of the co-evolutionary link between nature and culture, the Andean Constitutionalism emerges as the expression of a counter-hegemonic constitutionalism committed to the construction of a new institutional framework through the inclusion of new participatory and intercultural mechanisms. Departing from western constitutional paradigms, this groundbreaking constitutionalism revisits the "Gaia hypothesis" and legitimizes a real "social contract" among the people and nature, and instead of considering it as an "object" of ownership, exploitation, or conservation, it regards nature as a legal "subject" and primary source of society itself and the Constitution as its "legal grantor and protector".
