Desarraigo y acciones alternativas al desarrollo

Abstract

The present article argues about the configuration of the discourse of "development" during the twentieth century and how it has come into question as a result of economic crises, increased poverty and progressive deterioration of the environment related to Dysfunctionality of the environment imposed models reach the "development". In this sense, the text addresses the debates around the civilization crisis and modernity, stating that the development models have provoked in the different territories a great phenomenon of uprooting that prevent the sense of belonging and social fabric in the different territories and On the contrary it keeps them in an endless circle of marginalization and poverty. Therefore, it is argued that it is necessary to dimension the uprooting to interpret the different situations of marginalization and vulnerability of the territories. In this way, the perspective of "good living" is shown as an alternative action to development, as a decisive bet in the reconstruction of broken vital tissues.
