Crisis. Collapse. Capitalism. Neoliberalism.Abstract
The present is controlled by contradictory discourses about the crisis. In this ar- ticle we propose an overview on the conceptual framework that allow us to un- derstand the crisis in socioeconomic systems. It creates conditions to think about the links between crisis, capitalism and neoliberalism. Protecting contemporary paradigms and ignoring the complexity of socio-economic systems, increases the conditions to generate and/or extend crisis.
