BARRERA, Analé. Social Economy and critical thinking: Contributions to the analysis of the current scenario. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.29, pp.517-535. ISSN 1514-6871.

This article intends to identify and characterize the different views on “social economy” (SE) in contemporary Argentina. From the understanding that this concept is used in a generic way, with diverse and contradictory senses that refer to an undefined field of economic activities, two positions are broadly distinguished: a perspective of integration to capitalism and another one that criticizes it. Moreover, the focus would be set on the second one. For this purpose, the paper would recover the analysis that Marx and Engels did about cooperatives and utopian socialists. At this point, SE current reality in Argentina would be approached through the raising of new questions.

Palavras-chave : Social Economy; Marx and Engels; Critical Thinking.
