Resumen
BALLINA RIOS, Francisco. Towards a Sustainable Development Business Model in Latin America?. Ens. Econ. [online]. 2021, vol.31, n.58, pp.86-108. Epub 16-Jul-2021. ISSN 0121-117X. https://doi.org/10.15446/ede.v31n58.85905.
The objective of this article is to investigate how much the discipline of business has evolved as technique or as episteme, in the Latin American context. It is proposed that the Latin American administration theory is facing a double challenge: an epistemological one, due to its lack of consistency and internal coherence; and a sociological one, given the fact that its conceptual apparatus consists of technical approaches connected to production processes on a global scale with a pragmatic-rationalist emphasis. This administrative theory is based on economic liberalism, on management models that predominantly come from Europe and USA, as well as Japan. Likewise, the aim is to make a synoptical description of where the alternative agendas for research on business are headed in order to overcome this hurdle, through a conceptualization of the role that businesses and organizations play in our societies.
