Límites y contradicciones del capital en la naturaleza

Abstract

This article addresses the main theses on the contradiction of capital in nature from three theoretical perspectives. These approaches provide elements for understanding the unsustainability of capitalism. The present article presents a synthesis of what is known as the capital/nature contradiction, based on homologies, complementarities, and consensuses between three theoretical approaches: 1) the historical dynamics of capital; 2) the productive-consumptive form of infinite growth, and 3) the decoupling of accumulation periods versus cycles of renewal, adaptation, and assimilation of ecosystems.
