The present article discusses the main proposals for constructing cultural indicators in Mexico, Spain and Germany, and contrasts them to the indicators used for gathering cultural statistics. It became clear that individual indicators of development and wellbeing have not been developed, or at least not at a level plausible for their application, though two decades have passed since Pattanaik proposed them for the area of culture. This paper offers a distinct development proposal for addressing this problem, one that is more feasible for the entities responsible for culture in their territories, that has the capacity to measure the impact of the cultural actions implemented on individuals, and that has a higher probability of obtaining results that will allow the analysis and evaluation of such actions.
