LOPEZ LOZANO, Rafael Baldomero. Influence of neoliberalism on the principles and values of business elites in the city of Lima, Peru. Entramado [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.2, pp.202-215. ISSN 1900-3803.  https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.2.5714.

This article presents the influence of neoliberalism in the narrative of nation in businessmen and executives belonging to various business associations of Lima. This research stems from the need to study the most privileged sectors from anthropology because it helps to understand how in Latin American society's power is exercised. In this way, the justification for this information is to promote a research agenda from anthropology on the sectors that have the greatest privileges in Latin American societies. This article, then, is inspired by the works on the "Argentine upper class" (Gessaghi, 2015) and seeks to promote it within other countries. In Peru, there have been very few works from an anthropological perspective that have worked on the economic elite and this seeks to promote a debate that had been left aside in the last 40 years (Cotler; 1978).

Keywords : Neoliberalism; businessmen; executives; principles; values; Lima.
