| Publisher: | Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios - UNIMINUTO |
| Description: | Modern or Scientific Economy has developed a simplified and legalistic view (in the manner of physical laws) of the diverse activities of production and material exchange with which human groups gain their sustenance. However, although it has been developed around the specificities of modern Western societies, this perspective has been imposed on all kinds of societies, and even all historical periods. This article aims to contribute to overcoming that simplification, emphasizing the importance of a truly empirical technical-practical approach that considers sustenance activities from the socio-cultural contexts that give them their practical form, logic, and meaning. This view, together with a new appreciation of the complexity of sustenance phenomena, rejects the possibility of framing them within a rigid legalistic framework. La Economía Moderna o científica ha desarrollado una mirada simplificada y legalista (al modo de las leyes físicas) de las diversas actividades productivas y de intercambio material con que los grupos humanos consiguen el sustento. Esa perspectiva no obstante haber sido elaborada a partir de la especificidad de las sociedades occidentales modernas, ha sido impuesta a cualquier tipo de sociedad e incluso a cualquier época. En tal sentido, este artículo pretende cooperar a superar esa simplificación remarcando la importancia de un enfoque teórico-práctico realmente empírico, que considere las actividades de sustento desde los contextos socioculturales que les dan su forma práctica, su lógica, y significación. Esta mirada, junto con el rescatar la complejidad de los fenómenos de sustento, rechaza la posibilidad de enmarcarlos en un rígido marco legalista. |
