Development, the category used to express economic growth, emerged during the Cold War and although it was proposed by metropolitan theorists it was assumed in Latin America to be one of the available instruments to achieve growth and as an alternative to socialism. Development was pursued from 1945 to 1975, when, with the advent of neo-liberalism, it was gradually displaced from the agenda of national and international concern. At the beginning of the 21st century, with the failure of the self-regulating market, once again the debate on problems of development emerged, obliging a critical revision of the concept itself to expose its colonial character, with the aim of building routes away from neo-liberalism and overcoming the problems that have made Latin America one of the most unequal regions in the world.

Palabras llave : development; growth; industrialization; self-regulating market; colonial.
