Abstract

El presente ensayo busca responder cómo desde la perspectiva de la antropología económica se puede comprender que el valor económico de las mercancías está determinado en cierta medida por la cultura y por el efecto de la cultura creada por el sistema de producción capitalista en la actualidad: la cultura del consumo. Además, expone que dentro de la vida cotidiana de este siglo es posible observar que el valor de las mercancías se encuentra explicado por la semiótica detrás de los bienes y servicios. En consecuencia, la categoría de valor termina por cobrar un sentido diferente al usualmente expuesto tradicionalmente por los economistas clásicos. *** This essay seeks to answer how from the perspective of economic anthropology it could be understood that the economic value of goods is determined to some extent by culture and by the effect of culture created by the capitalist production system in the present: the culture of consumption. In addition, it is stated that within the daily life of this century, it is possible to observe that the value of merchandise is explained by the semiotics behind goods and services. Consequently, the value category ends up charging a different meaning to the one traditionally exposed by classical economists.
