Abstract

Introduction: The following text is a part of the finds of the research “EXPLORATORY ANALYSIS OF THE CONCEPT OF DEVELOPMENT INCLUDED IN THE COLOMBIAN DEVELOPMENT PLANS. CONTINUITIES AND FRACTURES. PERIOD 1950-2000”,which tries to establish, theoretically and from an exploratory analysis line, the historical practice of the concept of development in Colombia, according to the concept of development that appears in its National Development Plans and in similar documents during the second half of the XX Century. This research produced three finds: First, the constant conception of economical growth as the only idea of development. Second, evident fractures and discontinuities in the development speech, due to the imperant focuses about the topic and, third, the foreign speech practices in Colombia’s development. This latter find is the one presented with the title: COLOMBIAN DEVELOPMENT: HISTORY OF A HEGEMONICAL SPEECH. Materials and Methods: This research work is theoretical and is made under qualitative research parameters, allowing us to establish a scientific method to have an adequate approach to the research object and interact with it. The approach of this research is established by following the route offered by the documental and historical research method in the multicyclical framework of qualitative research. In this route, hermeneutics (attained to the hermeneuticalhistorical method) was the focus used to approach the interpretation of texts and the appropriate contexts, with the analysis of contents´ method. By the use of analysis matrixes, common elements are inferred and those, from the exploration we are making, have been called finds. They are duly documented and evidenced afterwards. Results and Main Conclusions: From the speeches used for the national development plans, effects of truth and reality have been created, and this fact has implied a control of the used words that, at the end of the day, is the one that produces the hegemonical speech in this case. This sort of speeches have been consolidated from the profesionalization of development and its raising to an institutional level.
