“…12 These achievements were the result of an intense participation of peasant and indigenous movements in the Constitutional Assembly, either through the MAS (Movimiento al Socialismo) -the governing party-or other civic organisations. This participation was only possible because of a coalition called Pact of Unity, a forum that proposed a common language of state re-foundation to the assembly (Pannain, 2014).…”

This article investigates how the neighbourhood movement of the city of El Alto, a key social movement in contemporary Bolivia, depicted and constructed ideas of development during the protests of October 2003, the so-called "Gas War". Their perspective was both informed by transnational ideologies -such as progress, modernisation and development-and the deeply rooted collective memory of the War of the Pacific. Differently from other nationalist experiences, this "looking back to move forwards" movement sought to re-stablish a balance of powers, instead of promoting group superiority. This emphasis on equality brings possibilities of dialogue with the emerging development paradigm of vivir bien (living well). This paper, thus, contributes to a more general discussion on the conflict between developmentalism and vivir bien in Latin America. Instead of quickly dismissing this new paradigm as being too normative and distant from the realities of poor people, it identifies the potential encounters between them.Keywords: Development.

Sua perspectiva era informada por ideologias transnacionais -como o progresso, a modernização e o desenvolvimento -e a memória coletiva profundamente enraizada da Guerra do Pacífico. Diferentemente de outras experiências nacionalistas, esse movimento que "avança enquanto olha para trás" procurou reestabelecer um equilíbrio de poderes em vez de promover a superioridade do grupo. Essa ênfase na igualdade traz possibilidades de diálogo com o paradigma de desenvolvimento emergente de vivir bien. Este artigo contribui para uma discussão mais geral sobre o conflito entre o desenvolvimento e o vivir bien na América Latina. Em vez de descartar rapidamente este novo paradigma como sendo demasiado normativo e distante das realidades das pessoas pobres, identifica os possíveis encontros entre eles.
