Summary: It is postulated that there are several varieties of development but all maintain a core set of ideas and sensibilities about how they understand progress, the appropriation of nature, quality of life and the advancement of history as linearity. These basic concepts are deeply rooted. In the past, despite cycles of sharp critiques, it returned as revised versions of development. More recently, the common background is seen in the shared features between extractivists styles by conservative and progressive governments. Three kinds of disputes on development are identified (focusing on instrumental issues, on different types of development, or as “alternative development”). Lastly, Buen Vivir, is briefly revised, as the most recent and powerful example of an alternative to development.
