Abstract
This essay is an attempt to reframe discussion on development propounding the need to attend to three sources of new perspectives, namely culture, social dynamics and environment. Such new perspectives are accessible only if one adopts a reflexive approach, in order to integrate social inclusiveness and analytical demands. One begins by commenting on the present state of partial frustration of the notion of classical economic development, by the emergence of the aforementioned demands, opening the agenda for a propositive discurse on development as a plural construction. Then, one offers not a concept but an agenda, envisioned as a somewhat tense, but also creative balance between culture, developed as decolonial approach to the notion of territorial lived experience; social dynamics as a reversal of the conception of development from social points of view, proposing poorness as a resource to rethink desiderata of consumption and/or systems of symbolic values; finally, one proposes to rethink environment not as a problem, but as a source of new models, embedded in the discussion of ethnosustainability and ethnodevelopment.
