    Resumen: This paper proposes a debate on the reinterpretation of the classical concept of 'Subject of Rights'' as an element intertwined with the achievement of Ecological Justice.

Finally, it addresses the changes that such conceptions provoke to deal with such contemporary and complex reinterpretations. To do so, it uses Bibliographic Review, with a deductive method and a qualitative focus
