The aim of the research is to analyse alternative obligations from the perspective of the Ecuadorian Civil Code. By means of a descriptive research approach with a bibliographic design. Alternative obligations represent a modality of performance in which the debtor is entitled to choose between several benefits to fulfil his obligation. These obligations are regulated in the Ecuadorian Civil Code and present specific characteristics such as the plurality of benefits and the creditor's powers. There are different classifications of alternative obligations, such as simple, optional and conjunctive, each with its particularities regarding performance and non-performance. As to the manner of performance, the obligor may perform by his choice, the obligee's choice or by agreement between the parties. On the other hand, non-performance of the alternative obligations may occur due to the obligor's lack of choice, due to supervening impossibility or due to the obligor's fault.
