Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo consiste en demostrar la fundamental concordancia existente entre las aportaciones teóricas procedentes de los economistas y sociólogos adscritos al enfoque de redes. Con tal propósito, se agruparon dichas afinidades en torno a seis categorías principales: teleología, epistemología, metodología, agente individual, organizaciones e instituciones. A la vista de los resultados, se concluye que, si bien estas contribuciones presentan un perfil teórico muy similar, también es posible identificar cierta discrepancia con respecto a la taxonomía mercados-redes-jerarquías. The objective of this research is to demonstrate the fundamental agreement between economists and sociologists’ theoretical contributions related to the network approach. In order to do so, contributions were grouped into six main categories: teleology, epistemology, methodology, individual agents, organizations, and institutions. Based on the results, it was concluded that, while these contributions have a very similar theoretical profile, it is possible to identify some discrepancies regarding the markets-networks-hierarchies taxonomy
