description This article aims to analyze the critical discursive construction of the Sumak Kawsay, the same one that has been ruled as a political and philosophical proposal of the Andean vision in Ecuador. Firstly, the political actors of the 1980s and 1990s will be studied, and then contrasted with the precepts of the policies undertaken by the current regime. As for the philosophical position that emerges from Sumak Kawsay, it will be analyzed under Western thought, with perceptible advantages over Eurocentric philosophy. Finally, we will study the relationship between current Ecuadorian political praxis and Andean culture.

El presente artículo busca analizar la construcción discursiva, de manera crítica, del Sumak Kawsay, la misma que se ha venido rigiendo como propuesta política y filosófica de la visión andina en Ecuador. Primeramente, se estudiarán a los actores políticos de los años 80 y 90, y luego se contrastará con los preceptos de las políticas emprendidas por el actual régimen. En lo que respecta a la posición filosófica, que emerge del Sumak Kawsay, se analizará bajo el pensamiento occidental, con ventajas perceptibles sobre la filosofía eurocentrista. Finalmente, se estudiará la relación entre la praxis política actual ecuatoriana y la cultura andina.
