Abstract
GUECHA TORRES, Jessica Tatiana and GUECHA MEDINA, Ciro Nolberto. Responsibility in State Contracts: an Analysis from Public Ethic Abstract. Opin. jurid. [online]. 2021, vol.20, n.42, pp.115-141. Epub May 19, 2021. ISSN 1692-2530. https://doi.org/10.22395/ojum.v20n42a4.
The responsibility of the State has been framed through titles of imputation that go from the subjective responsibility of the failure of the service, going through the presumed failure, until culminating in the objective responsibility; circumstance that determines that in the obligation to compensate damages as a result of a failure in the service there is an irregular action, while in the objective one, only an action by a public entity is necessary, and those who suffer the damage are not obliged to bear it. In any case, the responsibility of the State has been analyzed from these two great classes of attribution. For this reason, this article, in order to seek a different perspective, aims to study it from the violation of public ethics, to determine the basis of attribution of responsibility and the obligation to repair damages, as a consequence of the contracting activity of the administration; which has allowed to obtain as a result that the contractual responsibility of the State derives in most cases from the violation of ethical postulates, which allows to conclude that public ethic constitutes a title of imputation of responsibility of the State. This article employed a propositional-analytical methodology.
