ResumoSpanish Abstract: El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar las caracteristicas del populismo a partir de la experiencia de Ecuador, uno de los paises de America Latina que ha tenido mas procesos de este tipo. La idea es identificar semejanzas en el modo en que se ejerce el estilo de liderazgo populista a partir de cuatro casos: Jose Maria Velasco Ibarra, Abdala Bucaram Ortiz, Alvaro Noboa Ponton y Rafael Correa, a pesar de las diferencias existentes entre esos lideres politicos. El argumento es que, a diferencia de las aproximaciones prevalecientes en la literatura ecuatoriana, el populismo debe entenderse como un estilo de liderazgo que se da entre lider-seguidor, el cual tiene una serie de caracteristicas especificas que se mantienen en el tiempo, mas alla de las diferencias contextuales y sistemicas.English Abstract: The objective of this paper is to explore the characteristics of populism from the experience of Ecuador, one of the countries in Latin America that has had more processes of this type. The idea is to identify similarities in the way that the populist style of leadership is exercised from four cases despite the existing differences between these political leaders: Jose Maria Velasco Ibarra, Abdala Bucaram Ortiz, Alvaro Noboa Ponton, and Rafael Correa. The argument is that, unlike the prevailing approaches in Ecuadorian literature, populism must be understood as a style of leadership that occurs between leader and follower, which has a series of characteristics that are maintained throughout time, regardless of the contextual and systematic differences.
