II. Abstract

The politic and administrative territorial division is not a finished topic yet, at least in Latin America, but it could be possible to see a world tendency in the best socially developed countries to use largely decentralized regimes where -statistically- while more administrative divisions and more deputies they have more developed they still would be. Those same variables reduce corruption. That is because the governmental administration is, by nature, territorial, so the money assignments to the micro territories and the politic representation of its citizens depends on it. In this paper its author proposes to sub-divide the national territories in administrative divisions, metropolitan districts and politic representation districts to the legislature, the first and third mentioned cases would be for all the different governmental levels, but the second mentioned case would be just for urban areas which present specified particularities in relation with their own public actions. For Ecuadorian case, the author proposes uninominal elections and a territorial division with parish (Actual situation), canton (Actual situation), department (Would be 24), metropolitan district (Would be 3) and regional (Would be 3) levels. The last mentioned only with coordination and adviser roles; the politic representation would be in the deputies for the National Congress.

Keywords: citizen participation, accountability, decentralization, territorial division, metropolitan area, district, uninominal election, corruption.
