Síntesis para una fundamentación de la economía de empresa

Starting out from the definition of enterprise as a material object (recurring to De Leon, Garau Riu, Coase) the author tries to draw away through historical elaboration, the specific object of enterprise economy as distinguished from that of political economy. He also tries to delimit the areas of preoccupation concerning the enterprise; thus equipped, the purpose of the book is to bring into a unit the significant items of the subject. This goal being attained he now pays attention to the specific problems and the required instruments for their solution. This book hints at revising the setting in which enterprise economy is placed, and at the revision of the interdisciplinary relations. Identifying the contents of the principal works on the subject (Gutenberg, Colbert, Bradford-Alt, Dean y Fernandez Piria) the author finds out that the so-called administrative sciences lack a unifying bond, constituting therefore interstitial sciences and techniques which specialize on particulars of enterprise economy. His conclusion is that the subject is of most recent data. The subject has a well definable formal object, and it forms part of the political theory with a basis which explains the events in the general theory. This subject only exists on account of the instrumental whole provided to it by the so-called operating investigation. Instituto de Investigaciones Económicas
