Excedente económico y persistencia de las desigualdades en América Latina

Abstract

THIS ARTICLE CONSTITUTES A CONCEPTUAL EFFORT TO UNDERSTAND THE DYNAMICS OF THE REPRODUCTION OF SOCIAL INEQUALITIES IN LATIN AMERICA DURING THE GLOBAL PHASE OF ACCUMULATION IN THE CAPITALIST SYSTEM. A SOCIOLOGICAL APPROACH IS ADOPTED. IN THIS RESPECT, IT PROPOSES A BREAK WITH THE LIBERAL PARADIGM AND ATTEMPTS TO RECOVER THE CENTRALITY OF GROUPS AND SOCIAL CLASSES IN THE ANALYSIS OF THIS PHENOMENON, WITHOUT LOSING SIGHT OF INDIVIDUAL AGENCY. LASTLY, THE TEXT PROPOSES AN ANALYTICAL MODEL WITH A REGIONAL SCOPE, ORIENTED TOWARD AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROCESS OF RECONSTITUTING UNEQUAL PROFITS WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF GLOBALIZATION.
