Since World War II (1939-1945) and particularly since the transition to civilian rule in 1979, new political parties and movements have emerged to challenge the dominance of the two traditional parties.
Ecuadorian political life has become much more varied and open, and the two traditional parties have dwindled into relative insignificance.
Some of the more important parties include the leftist People’s Democracy Party, the populist EcuadorianRoldosistParty, the centrist Party of the Democratic Left, and the Native American Pachakutik Movement-New Country.
In the late 1990s the leading parties were the EcuadorianRoldosistParty (PRE), the People’s Democracy-Christian Democrat Union (DP-UDC), the Democratic Left (ID), the New Country Party (NP), the Popular Democracy Movement (MPD), and the Social Christian Party (PSC).
In the presidential elections of July 1998, Jamil Mahuad of the Popular Democracy Party was elected by a slim margin and formed a coalition government with the Social Democratic Movement.
The Ecuadorian government was responsible for paying for the operation, and despite public donations and international aid to help cover the costs, Ecuador’s economy was expected to be hit still further as a result of the crisis.
