Abstract

This article examines agroecology from a political economy perspective and opens a line for an interdisciplinary approach between economics and ecology. To this end, the logic of capital in capitalist production and in peasant agriculture is analyzed along with its relationship to nature and the land. In this vein, based on the concept of the thing-process duality in capital, an attempt is made to relate the logic of capital to the economic and ecological rationality present in capitalist and peasant agriculture. Using a concrete example, it is shown how ecological rationality, over and above capital, centralizes and corrects productive processes. From this perspective - the workings of its antagonist —agribusiness—is explored, presenting concepts that support the contention that an agroecological movement makes sense in current times.El artículo examina a la agroecología desde la economía política y abre una línea de aproximación interdisciplinaria entre economía y ecología. Para ello se analiza la lógica del capital en la producción capitalista como también en la agricultura campesina y su relación con la naturaleza y la tierra. En esta línea, a partir del concepto de dualidad cosa-proceso del capital, se intenta relacionar la lógica del capital con la racionalidad económica y ecológica presente en la agricultura capitalista y campesina. A partir de un ejemplo concreto se muestra como la racionalidad ecológica, por sobre el capital, centraliza y disciplina los procesos productivos. Desde esta perspectiva se indaga sobre el funcionamiento de su antagonismo –el agronegocio-, presentando conceptos que permiten argumentar sobre el porqué tiene sentido un movimiento agroecológico en estos tiempos actuales.

生态农业与政治经济学:农民世界与资本的矛盾
本文从政治经济学的角度研究生态农业,为经济学和生态学之间的跨学科方法开辟了一条道路。为此,文章分析了资本主义生产和农民农业中的资本逻辑及其与自然和土地的关系。在此基础上,根据资本中的事物-过程二元性概念,尝试将资本逻辑与资本主义农业和农民农业中的经济和生态合理性联系起来。通过一个具体的例子,说明了生态理性是如何超越资本,集中并纠正生产过程的。文章从政治经济学的角度审视生态农业,在经济学和生态学之间开辟了一条跨学科的途径。文章从政治经济学的角度研究了生态农业,在经济学和生态学之间开辟了一条跨学科的途径。文章分析了资本主义生产和农民农业中的资本逻辑及其与自然和土地的关系。在这一思路中,以资本的事物-过程二元性概念为基础,试图将资本逻辑与资本主义农业和农民农业中存在的经济和生态合理性联系起来。通过一个具体的例子,说明了生态理性是如何超越资本,集中和规范生产过程的。从这一角度出发,研究了其对立面--农业综合企业--的运作,提出了一些概念,使我们能够论证为什么生态农业运动在这个时代是有意义的。
