Sumario: Since the mid-twentieth century development was configured as a strategic element to expand the real and symbolic colonies of northern hegemony in other regions of the world. With over 60 years of application development in all its forms has failed to solve the structural issues of poverty, exclusion, concentration of wealth and environmental degradation. In the late twentieth century new proposals and discussions have emerged to question the very foundations of development and to promote the construction of new epistemologies from the south. In this context, Ecuador, after a period of political instability, comes from 2006 in a process of historical break with its recent past, being its most representative landmark the approval of a new constitution whose backbone is the Sumak Kawsay or Buen Vivir as a project of society to achieve. Sumak Kawsay is emerging as an alternative to development and collects theoretical, philosophical and practical elements of various poststructuralist currents; however, in the governmental practice are apparent contradictions with some premises of Sumak Kawsay, which is also under continuous construction both discursive part and in its most concrete application levels, hence its speech contains elements of both development in their more orthodox forms and indigenous currents. This moment of theoretical agitation for new epistemic routes positions the Sumak Kawsay as a concrete proposal from the south where other subaltern discourses con converge; this without escaping from the contradictions and paradoxes that emerging paradigms are inexorably exposed.
