CUELLAR SAAVEDRA, Óscar  e  MORENO ARMELLA, Florita. Del crecimiento económico al desarrollo humano: Los cambiantes usos del concepto de desarrollo en América Latina, 1950-2000. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2009, vol.24, n.70, pp.83-114. ISSN 2007-8358.

This article presents an overview of the changing meanings attributed to the term "development" in Latin American social sciences from the end of World War II to 2000. It points to four main usages: economic growth, social and economic development, sustainable development, and human development. While the first two predominated until the early 1970s, culminating in the idea of "national development," from the early 1990s, the other two began to take shape to characterize some of the scientific community's most urgent ethical concerns and action-oriented discourse until the end of the century.

Palavras-chave : economic growth; development; socio-economic development; sustainable development; human development.
