Abstract

This article refers to a theoretical revision of the term Rule of Law and the concept of soft rule of law. It focuses on human rights as an essential element of the Rule of Law, the interaction between democracy and the challenges faced by the Rule of Law in a consolidated democracy. Finally, as an example, it introduces a brief reflection on the current institutional problems of Peru and Ecuador, pertinent for a better understanding of the interactions between the Rule of Law and the Soft Rule of Law.
