Abstract

Resumen En el presente artículo se presenta una reflexión teórica del concepto de desarrollo, analizando el proceso de eufemización por adjetivo que ha aparecido repetidamente en el discurso desarrollista durante los últimos anos, enfatizando en una de sus formas más recientes: el "desarrollo sostenible". Para este propósito se realizó una investigación cualitativa soportada en una revisión documental. Como resultado de la investigación se evidencia que la expresión "desarrollo sostenible" no deja de ser un oxímoron que termina combinando dos conceptos totalmente opuestos: desarrollo en términos de crecimiento económico y sustentabilidad ecológica, supeditando ésta última al crecimiento. Ante este escenario se propone el concepto de "sustentabilidad ambiental" como una alternativa que escapa del imaginario del desarrollo existente y posibilita el bienestar social y el equilibrio ecológico.
