| Sumario: | The Sumak Kawsay/Buen Vivir emerges from the indigenous movements of Ecuador as a Latin American, decolonial concept, formulated through a distinct discourse of identity affirmation, signaling a break with coloniality, hegemony, and the universality of Western culture exported to the world. Built on intercultural foundations – native principles based on the Andean philosophy and contributions from Western concepts – Sumak Kawsay/Buen Vivir embodies a new legal, political, and social contractuality concerning community life, the rights of Nature, and the respect and inclusion of indigenous ways of thinking, being, and existing in the world. A way of being and existing in the world so distinct and radically opposed to current paradigms faces significant obstacles in its path to implementation, ranging from the controversial translation of the Sumak Kawsay concept to Buen Vivir, through the imprecise and confusing definitions in the constitutional text, to the emergence of a symbiotic concept, sparking disputes and debates about its meaning and allowing for different interpretations. This dissertation explores, through the history of concepts and a genealogical perspective, the trajectory of the Sumak Kawsay and Buen Vivir concepts, from their origins and emergence in ethnic and epistemological roots, their rapprochement through translation, and finally, the process of theorization and implementation, culminating in their institutionalization with their inclusion in the Ecuadorian Constitution in effect since 2008. It concludes by addressing the debates and discussions surrounding their meaning and pragmatic implementation in society. The research was substantially based on documentary sources produced by the indigenous organizations OPIP, CONAIE, and ICCI, as well as documents related to the Montecristi Constituent Assembly |
