Resumo

El Reino de Bután es el único Estado de la cordillera del Himalaya cuya población es en su mayoría practicante del Budismo Mahayana Tántrico y cuyo desempeño tanto en la arena internacional como en su administración interna está estrechamente vinculado con los valores y principios budistas de reciprocidad, felicidad, solidaridad, vida familiar, cooperación, entre otros. Ejemplo de esto es la creación del Índice de Felicidad Nacional Bruta y la iniciativa del Nuevo Paradigma de Desarrollo. El presente artículo analiza los factores nacionales fundamentales que han permitido el desarrollo de la nación hacia las mencionadas políticas; y explica la influencia del Budismo en la formación de la Nación butanesa, para lo cual se hace un análisis cualitativo de fuentes, biografías, documentos oficiales y encuestas nacionales. Lo anterior permitirá explicar la estrecha relación ente el budismo y la nación butanesa actual, así como la importancia del Nuevo Paradigma del Desarrollo.

The Kingdom of Bhutan is the only country of the Himalayas whose most of its population is practitioner of the Tantric Mahayana Buddhism and whose performance in both the international arena and its internal administration is closely linked with Buddhist values and principles such as reciprocity, happiness, solidarity, family life, cooperation, among others. An example of this is the creation of Gross National Happiness Index and the initiative for the New Development Paradigm. The current article analyses the key domestic factors that have allowed the development of the nation towards the mentioned policies and explains the influence of Buddhism in the creation of the Bhutanese nation, for which it is done a qualitative analysis of sources, biographies, official documents and national surveys. This will allow explaining the close relation between Buddhism and the current Nation of Bhutan, like so the importance of the New Development Paradigm.
