Abstract

Las microfinanzas han conocido un notable desarrollo en los últimos años, presentándose como un instrumento eficaz para la promoción de las personas y la solución de los problemas del subdesarrollo. Consisten en la concesión de créditos de pequeña cuantía en condiciones muy adaptadas a las necesidades de emprendedores que carecen de patrimonio con el que garantizar el préstamo recibido. Abundan los trabajos sobre las microfinanzas, pero la dimensión ética de las mismas ha sido mucho menos estudiada. Este trabajo tiene por objeto presentar los caracteres económicos, sociales, políticos y humanos de las microfinanzas, con especial énfasis en los problemas éticos que originan y en la responsabilidad social de las instituciones que las ofrecen.
